What is the surname you are researching? I have access to indexes of Army Births overseas for the period you mentioned.

Dear Gillie,
I checked the GRO Army births indices and there were no JAYES entries between 1890 and 1905. There were a few JAY and JAYE though, please let me know if you want these. The index only gives the childs name not the parents, just for you to know.
Best Wishes
Amy

Dear Ryan,

I checked the GRO army births indices and found the following entries for the surname MUNSON.

MUNSON, Frances Theresa, Bangalore, 1903
MUNSON, Nora Ellen (might not be Ellen but writing is very blurry) Mhow, 1904

Hope these are of use.

Dear Ryan,
Having checked the GRO Regimental Births Indices I can tell you that Frances Theresa MUNSON was born to a family attached to the 44th reg. (East Essex)
Furthermore, there are many more births to be found for this surname in the Regimental Indices, let me know if you want them.

Dear Amy,
This is all gold!! Nora Munson is my Great Grandmother Mabel Munson's sister, and I have been searching for her relatives for a while now. I would be delighted to see the indices!

Thank you!
