Brilliant, you got rid of whatever it was on the fence behind him!  Many thanks. Jennifer

That is fantastic!  I have watched this ancestor come to life through the work you folk are doing.  Jennifer

Are any of you interested in an even more challenging one?

Thank you - she will be spoiled for choice.  Seeing the different results has been educational.  J

Wow,  I have sent them all to the person compiling the publication and she is most impressed, as am I!  Volunteers on Rootschat in the dim, dark past have also colourised family photos for me.  Not appropriate in this instance because of the poor image quality but getting that extra detail very valuable for us.  Again, thank you all.

Thank you all!  Much nicer now.  I hoped that someone would have the skills. Can see the eyes and the top of his head.  One of the family members is interested in tracking whether the receding hairline is a family characteristic.  Jennifer

Hoping this image can be sharpened please for inclusion in a small family publication.  Thank you, Jennifer

Armed Forces / Re: Kings Own Scottish Borderers, 25th regiment foot

The good news for me is that when the 11th served in Van Diemen's Land, Sydney, Norfolk Island etc the muster rolls are available.  At one stage I tried to track the movement of detachments in the colony and it is a daunting task. Maybe at some future time the records at Kew will be digitized as I would like more information about my ancestor's service with the 25th! 

It is possible to locate some movement of the regiments by trawling British newspapers. 

I also made an effort to track the ships in which the 11th travelled, both to get here and then when on detachment.  I eventually identified the ship my ancestor travelled in by looking at departure dates, how many days being paid while on board from the muster rolls, etc.  It took a while!
