Hello Wharfebank.
Thanks for replying.
Simon Alexander George Young is also my GGG Grandfather and William Kortright Brock is my GG Grandfather. Simon’s wife Hannah was Hannah Higginson. They were married on 31st May 1834, Bolarum, India. Simon was born 3 Nov 1805, Inverness, Scotland. He was the son of Ebenezer Young, a teacher at the (Inverness) Acadamy. His mother was Margaret Smith. If you go to the India Family History Search page at
www.indiafamily.bl.uk you will find the full references.
The de Saumarez addition to the Brock names is a references to family connections with the De Saumarez family of Guernsey.
When you have transcribed the letters I would love to see them. I also have letters written to Fanny Aikin Kortright, William Kortright Brock's aunt. Have only just aquired them so haven't had much chance to look at them properly yet, should be interesting.
Regards
Gina
