Have you actually been to the India Office or just looked at the searchable database on their site?.

Also if he was in the British Army rather than the Indian Army presumably he would have been an officer and there may be records for him at the National Archives which could well include information on his marriage. Not online though - you'd have to go there or get someone to go for you.

Yes thanks, that's the son Alfred but it's the marriage c1860 of his parents I seek.

Thanks for the response - he may well have been in the army as it is known he went to India as a Medical Officer and I'm guessing from his age and occupation this would have been in the late 1850s possibly around the time of the Indian Mutiny when reinforcements were sent over. His first son that I can find was born 1862 hence the c1860 marriage.

Was Thomas Baron in the army or just a civilian?

I'm looking for a marriage in India c1860 between Thomas Baron born December 1837 in Chorlton on Medlock, Manchester, parents Thomas and Hannah, and Elizabeth Keen born in India of unknown Irish parents. Have tried BL IO records and GRO chaplains returns to no avail.

Any suggestions, apart from "give up" ??

Many thanks,
Richard.
