BISA lookup please
« on: Friday 27 August 10 01:09 BST (UK) »

Hi,

If possible could someone lookup the BISA for a Mr Boucant, as a Solicitor he represented my great great grandfather in an insolvency case in Adelaide in 1862 and I found out that he may have ended up a Judge. 

Regards  Gerry

Google and NLA bring up plenty of hits for a Justice BOUCANT.
From the following it would appear his name is Hillary.

Leanne,

Thanks for the response but I now realise that I had the name wrong for the BISA lookup is should have been BOUCAUT.

Regards

Gerry

Thanks Cando,

Wow, I didn't expect two Boucaut solicitors, I wonder which one represented my ancestor!

It's not too important it was more an interest thing to add to my family history.

Regards
