United States of America / Philadelphia Information
« on: Saturday 28 January 12 07:25 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Just wondering if someone can advise me a few things:
I am trying to somehow confirm the birth of a John Kilchrist, believed born Philadelphia, (noted on a census he is a british subject) about 1766.
Only reason we can think he is born in Philadelphia, and returns back to England is because his father was in the British Army.
So I know that this timeframe is before any official records for births, but is there ANY way of trying to find this information.
I was watching a show on SBS last night which was talking about the War and how in 1881 the British Army retreated. So I was wondering if there would be any records about how they would have retreated families back to England.
Thanks for any help
