Charlotte, Many Many Thanks for the McSWEENEY information. Much appreciated. Thelma, OZ..

Hi Chris Sorry but I have had no luck either. I have checked Allcock, Alcock, Ellcock and Elcock in Army, Consular and Regimental records but no one in Cairo at all let alone the ones you are looking for. Charlotte

Hi Leslie Army Births 1796 - 1880 John William Gray Ceylon 1860-1867 Page 303 No sign of Julia - I have checked Consular just in case as well. There is a death for a James Gray 1870-72, may be yours Army Deaths 1796 - 1780 James Gray Malta 1870-1872 Page 681 No record of a James Gray marriage Army or Consular. Charlotte

Charlotte May thanks for looking for my Elcock/Alcocks. Oh well will now have to cough up the outragous fees to the British Embassy in Egypt :( Thanks again Chris

Hi Charlotte, Woul d you please look for the birth of Henry Aaron Smith in Malta in the first half of the 1820 (best guess 1824)...... probably an Army or Consular birth. Cheers, Bill Sydney, Australia

Hi Bill I have checked both Army Births and Regimental Births for the period of the 1820's without any luck. Consular Birth Registration doesn't start until 1849 and Marine Births in 1837. Charlotte

Hi Charlotte Great offer!, would you see if there is a marriage between: (Army) JAMES B WATERS & ANN MOWATT possibly in Ireland 1835-1845. not to worry if you can't find them. Thanks Carrie

Hi Charlotte Thank you for your kind offer. I know i am asking a lot but Please could you look up Harold Chorley. He was born in Aston Birmingham in 1904 and i know he arrived in Quebec in 1927. He joined the Canadian army and i know he was in the Army for quite some time. Please can you see if you can find his regiment for me. Also i know he married and died in Canada but have no details on either event. Any information would be great. Thanks you so much for trying All the best Jane

Hi Carrie No luck with James B Waters and Ann Mowatt - sorry Charlotte

Hi Jane Can't find any mention of Harold Chorley at all. I can't actually see any Canandian references at all, in that period. He may have had to take Canadian Nationality to join the Canadian Army, in which case there wouldn't be any British Registrations, or Canada (and I think Australia) seem be in a different category from normal Consular Registration. I think you will have to try and get some Canadian help in your search. Charlotte

HI, thanks for the very kind offer. I know that Florence Georgina Gordon Kerr was born in India in 1879 - Daughter of Thomas and Olivia. I think that Thomas married OIivia Meskell in 1871 in INdia as well. Could you posibly look for a birth reference for either of them, thanks (army)

Hi Charlotte Thanks for looking. all the best Jane

Hi Tom Think this is your Florence Regimental Births 1761 - 1924 Florence G G Kerr Ranikhet 1879 Regt 34th Volume 1081 Page 69 Sorry, no sign of a marriage under Army or Consular. Charlotte

Hello Charlotte, Thank you for the kind offer. Could you have a look in the consular section for the death of Mary Ann Good, born c.1858 between about 1890 and 1905. She was living in Simonstown near Cape Town, South Africa at the time. Thank you, Anne Good

Hi Ann No Mary Ann Good in the Consular Death Registration's for 1880 - 1905 I also checked the Army ones for the period, just in case, sorry Charlotte

Thank you for looking, Charlotte. Anne
