Family of Sir Rollo GILLESPIE

[rcmdq]

Thanks hughrg!
No wonder I couldn't find the book!
Hopefully, I'll hear from some other descendants from this line.
Any more Argentinians out there from the Gillespie-O'Dwyer line?
Would love to hear from you.

Hi, I am another Argentine descendant of Sir Rollo, via Celina and Joseph. Would be interested in more details of Mlle D'Oboreuf. I have a baptism that states Celina was the daughter of Robert Rollo Gillespie and Rose Wheatlie, but it may be possible that Rose may have been a nanny and they used her name to protect the real mother. I came across the name D'Oboreuf (or that is what the written notes looked like) but I have never been able to confirm that name.

New to the forum, apology if this does not comply to this discussion.

As an aside .  I gather from my Nepalese contacts that money is available to restore or replace the memorials about the Battle of Khalunga, restoration of the generals grave etc and the creation of gardens associated with the memorials . It includes a reconstruction of the Fort   Now I always remember a photo or picture of the fort from my early years ,and Dad tell me what it was, but I don't have the  info to access on this side of things.( YES I WAS STITCHED UP OVER INHERITANCE) Now has anyone seen a picture of the fort in contemporary press or later, because the Archaeological service want this information? Anything gratefully received.

Hi Rowlie,

My wife (6th generation) and in-laws (5th) are the descendent of Balbhadra ("Bulbudder" in plaque at the Nalapani Fort), who was the commander of the Gorkhas at the Battle of Khalunga. It would be interesting to know if there are any information to share from these two sides. Anything gratefully received. Pani
