1833 Wedding in India
« on: Sunday 12 February 12 14:59 GMT (UK) »
Hi

I am trying to get more information on a wedding that took place in Bombay, Maharashtra, India on 22nd January 1833 between my 3rd great garnd uncle John Graham and an Eleanor Susanna Stanley, she died the 3rd July 1834 in Kandalla near Poona, East India and John on 24 May 1839 in Kandalla near Poona, East India.

John was the Superintendant of the Botanic Garden in Bombay, where he worked as a young scientist in the Botany field, he wrote a book titled "Catalogue of the Plants Growing in Bombay and its Vicinity" and was under the wing of Sir John Malcolm who was one of several boys in the Malcolm family who did great things, the following link goes to a google book file on Sir John Malcolm.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
