Indian records Leonard burrow king
« on: Wednesday 28 August 13 13:24 BST (UK) »
Hi

I am trying to find out when a family returned to the uk and if all of them came back.

Leonard burrows king born 1869 Sussex died 1927 Southampton
Served as a warrant officer ordnance department southern army Poona India.  He married Martha Jane rennin ? Whilst in Poona ? Was she from Poona ? They had 3 children Cyril born 1902 died 1903 Stella born Yemen 1903 died 1946 Cecil Edwin George born Poona 1906 died 1938 London.  Martha died in India in 1909 and it looks like Leonard remarried to Georgian Marlene ? Or different spelling Georgia Malone.  I am told they all moved back to the uk when Stella was a teenager so approx.  I can't find any details of the travel.  I was told they may have also brought several servants back with them and initially they may have lived in Brighton where Leonard was born.  I can't find travel details and what happened to Georgia Malone?  I have found a grave for Leonard which states late of the ordnance dept Indian army and Cecil and Stella are on the same plot.  Can anyone help with the journey from India to UK ?

Many thanks for the scots guard info I didn't have this.  Leonard was a solicitor so this is him. how do I find out when the family travelled back from India or when he left the ordnance dept of Indian army?

ancestry has all incoming passenger lists so either join up for a free trial for a fortnight [but don,t forget to cancel it or you,ll be charged a years fee ] or see if your local library has free access.
amended wrong detail

Thanks for the birth info will check that one out.  I am on ancestry but just can't seem to find any travel info, I guess I just need to keep trawling.

hi sorry for my earlier post I was looking at rennie when should have used Everett but have found this birth mary j Everett reg dist guitcross Norfolk eng  1866 jul sep vol 4b p222 also on the marriage cider posted it says she was married as mary jane Everett not rennie ! page 77 place Bombay so you canget the cert from gro as normal if you wish comes under gro army births deaths and marriages also tried a search through army birth records but nothing comes up and nothing in outgoing passenger lists for a Martha Everett so must have gone prior to 1890 I,m guessing she was a dau of another soldier .
