Etterick or Edward Scott
« on: Friday 13 May 16 07:44 BST (UK) »
Hi I am looking for a 3x great uncle Etterick SCOTT who was born 07 December 1850 in Bangalore India when his father John SCOTT was serving in the army. He was in Bedlington area in 1861 1871 and 1881 census but then goes missing- it is possible he went back to India as there are E Scott references in the Royal Boot? Fusiliers in the Punjab 1897-1898 There is a Edward Scott in the Morpeth Union in 1911 census born in Bangalore India aged 60 but cant find death records or any other mention of Etterick which i'm sure you agree is an unusual name Any information would be great

Thank you

Barbara

I agree a rather unusual name
I would be tempted to buy the death cert for Edward death recorded Morpeth 1922
but there again if he died in the work house there wont be any additional information

Hi Radcliff

Thank you for replying I have checked again on ancestry and the record definitely says Royal Boots Fusiliers but of course it could be foot! I have attempted to attach the record but unsure of the success!! I will consider the death certificate Thanks again

Hi

Thanks I did look at the valley but his father was from North Charlton near Alnwick and his mother from Ireland and they travelled with the army to Exeter Chatham India and then settling in to Bedlington his mother died 1893 in Cambois NBL I think he may have enlisted again at this time as he disappears until 1911 when he is in Morpeth workhouse - a man of mystery I think!!

He isn't in the workhouse in 1911, he's in a Model Lodging House on Union Street, Morpeth, managed by a George Farquhar.

Hi Jomot

looked that up and thanks not a workhouse- still can't find where he was between 1883 when he was present at the death of his brother in Bedlington and 1911 Census then when he died in the lodging house 1922

Thanks again
