The only news for today is that Sheila's grandson ran into a slight problem but will go digging into the family tree later in the week. I mentioned the possibility of Colin and Robert being one and the same, and for whatever reason, he is also leaning to that conclusion. Hopefully by Saturday a brick or two will come loose. Cheers  Betty

A resource for Indian information (mentioned on Beginner's Board) is Homeward Mail a British publication with news of British people (from India, China, and the East).  It is available on Find My Past and also https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/ (3 free searches before it costs money).

I did find an interesting snippet about the brothers Walter, Arthur and Alfred Seale being in trouble 30th July 1872 in High Court of Allahabad - allegedly trashed a house because of being denied access to a girlfriend.

I haven't found anything useful yet  :(   (2 more free searches left)

I did a search for "walter seale" in Homeward Mail and it is on page 6,7 for 30th July 1872.

Ros

I use this "way in" and tick "exact search" box

http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/search/advanced

Use the filters to the left then to hone in where you want.

You can usually (not always) read enough of the relevant article to decide whether is worth paying for or not ::)
