I have a Duncan James Lamond married to Harriet Jane ?, parents of Duncan James Lamond2.
I HAVE Duncan Sr. military records, I am searching information on the family in the area of Ootacamund.
Duncan Sr. retired from the 72nd Highland Reg't (later 78th) to the "Madras Insane Asylum". He was about 56 years old at that time, Harriet (according to family lore) was a nursing sister there. There is a possibility that Duncan Sr. obtained employment there on his retirement from military service. I have the birth registration for Duncan Jr. He married Dorothy Ross of Delhi (an angloindian woman) and had three sons. Two immigrated to Ontario,Canada, one to North Carolina, USA.
