G'day CatOne and Pam

Thanks for your lightning fast replies.
He is a COTTON but not in 1851 - apparently Huh
He was born in Secunderabad E.I.  but his family was in London at this time.
Probably the right dude.

Christs Hospital ...
Does anyone know what sort of place that was?

Thanks again for your help
Cheers

If you google "Christs School", a good article on wikipedia comes up giving the history of these schools ( also known as Blue Coat Schools)

I'm reposting my thanks as I seem to have wrecked the last one.

Thank you for the links - explains a lot. 

His father was insane and his mother had three younger children to care for so this would be a likely place for him to end up.  It all worked out well in the end though.

Thanks for your time and efforts
