if you have access to British Library Newspapers you can see this entry in  "The Asiatic Journal and Monthly Register for British India and its Dependencies"
How do I filter for this journal please? India or Asia do not come up in the drop down list for countries when I click the 'US & World' option. I have a soldier who went to India with the 87th in 1849 & would like to search for any BMDs there to ascertain whether his wife went too. I have FindMyPast subs

For interest, there is a marriage notice:

"Sept. 19, At Madras, Capt. W. Justice, 5th regt. N.I., to Elizabeth Sophia, second daughter of Capt. Stephen Prendergast of H.M. 8th regt."
The Asiatic Journal and Monthly Register for British India and its Dependencies, Mar. 1, 1832

and another birth notice:
"Dec. 3. At Palamcottah, the lady of Major W. Justice, 5th N.I., of a daughter."
The Asiatic Journal and Monthly Register for British India and its Dependencies, Mar. 1, 1841

Josey, I access British Library Newspapers through my library card and use the Gale Primary Sources database. You can "browse publications" which will lead to the Asiatic Journal. Or if you search for a name (for example, "W Justice") and then limit via "Newspapers and Periodicals" and then further with "Publication Title".

Not sure how the findmypast newspaper search works. Hope that helps!  :)

If you like, send me a pm and I'll have a look for you, or start a new thread.  ;) :)
