Other Countries / India: Rosanna Armstrong, born 1869
« on: Thursday 16 October 14 22:37 BST (UK)  »
Hello Rootschatters!

I'm trying to discover more about my ancestor Rosanna Armstrong, and her father William Armstrong. The 1891 and 1901 censuses put her birth place as India (no other details) and her birth year as 1869. I cannot find her on any other English censuses prior to this date so I presume at this point she was still living in India. She died in Mar 1910 in the Woolwich district.

Rosanna married George Henry Lockyer at St Nicholas Church, Plumstead, Kent on 23 Nov 1888. Her father is listed as William Armstrong (deceased), a Sargeant RA (Royal Artillery?). I have attempted to search the FIBIS Database (http://www.fibis.org/) and there are no results for a Rosanna Armstrong, and quite a number of individuals called William Armstrong - as would be expected for such a common name. I cannot find a definitive link between any of them.

Please could anyone be of any help? Unfortunately I do not have her mother's name, and I could not find any births for a Rosanna Armstrong in the specific years in India via the GRO. I'd appreciate any info available.

Thanks in advance  :)
