2. NORTHMORE -EITC [1]
Hi Everyone, My modemless girlfriend has a number of illustrious ancestors who were very active in the East India Trading Coy - both in England and in India. The two main families involved were the NORTHMOREs and the WHITLOCKs. We do know that a John NORTHMORE was in India and also his father or grandfather (who was a general) . Another family member, Hubert Cornish WHITLOCK, actually wrote a diary of his life and times in India, I gather. Our problem is accessing any records for the EITC - being in

7. British Army Regiments [0.966513]
Folks, In response to Jim Thompson's questions about two British Army regiments, I've always found the National Army Museum in London to be incredibly helpful with regimental histories. If you write them a polite letter, detailing the regiment in which you are interested and the time period, they will usually respond with photocopies of the relevant pages of regimental histories. When they do not have copies of the regimental history, they will usually glean information from other sources. Their ad

The latter covering M.I's to about 1847 only but a good reference source. Sir Charles (1781-1845) also appears in the index of "Calcutta - City of Palaces", pub. British Library, 1990. A quote from "Bengal Past & Present", Jan.-Mar.

13. Ancestors [0.966513]
My great-grandfather William Thomson (1821-1875) was a private in the 78th Highland Regiment, serving from approximately 1837 to 1860. He married while in service, but only the identity of his second wife is known. I'm interested in details on his service; I'm familiar with the rough outline of Havelock's Relief of Lucknow, but not much more. His father, William Thomson, was a sergeant in the 40th Regiment of Foot in 1818, and supposedly died of cholera in India in 1822. Any details on his life and service

Mike, I'll tell you how it works in the Australian Army, and make the grand assumption that it would be similar for the British Army. 'Supernumery' means that the person worked with the regime
16. Re: [Fwd: Re: Unidentified subject (i.e. Indian words)] [0.966513]
Hello Moyra. The word dooly was used in the context described by Stephen - that is, a litter used to carry a sick person. The "appliance" you describe is known in Australia as a "Coolgardie Safe". (Coolgardie is an old desert goldmining town where it gets a bit warm in summer!) No doubt it would have all kinds of names in different parts of the world. Thanks for your interest.

18. Maps of Indian States [0.966513]
I am looking for maps of the various Indian States and Principal cities on the web that I can print out. I have tried those at http://www.incore.com/india/tnmap.html but the colour in them makes it difficult to read when printed in Black and White. I have not been able to justify colour printing as yet. But I am working on myself.

19. Doctors Training in India [0.966513]
One place that trained doctors in India during the colonial period was the Christian Medical College in Vellore (what is now Tamil Nadu, but was the Presidency of Madras). I'll see if I can find an address for them as more than one person is trying to track down doctors in India.
