 ???I am looking for Henry Graham Montagu/e.Children were;Henry G (b) abt1855. Eugene Graham (b) 1858(my grandfather),he married in 1888 and arrived in Queensland the same year.Emma Maria married in 1880 to James Clinton Bishop. Grace Matilda (b)1860.(d)1861.
I cant find Henry Graham anywhere, he was on Eugene's marriage cert: as a public writer. Eugene's mother was Emma Dellar. No marriage found. I found a H G in the debtors prison in 1846 then he was tried again & transported for 7yrs???.

Hi GYpsy,

Many thanks for your letter, but, sadly this isnt the Henry Graham Montagu I am searching for. He certainly didnt have the people you mention in his family.
Best of Luck

After a lot of searching I have found that Henry Graham Montague was not transported after all. I have the papers from NA saying that he was transfered to Dartmoor in 1853 & by 1855 he was released & returned to London.

Hi Tiger67

Many thanks for your reply and interest, it was a surprise to get a reply after all this time.  However, this isnt the person I am looking for. My Henry was born 1839  and then went into the army when he was 17. Serving in the Crimean War and then the Indian Uprising and returning to Bath England. I have his obituary from the Bath Chronicle which gives details of hs life from the age of 17.
However, as we dont know anything of his life before 17,  do you think that the info you have just given me could be him????????????? He would have had to be 14 in 1853???????
Oh! this is a puzzle.  Also after much searching from many of us we have all come to the conclusion that he must have been illegitimate.
Once again many thanks
Helenna
