Firstly, thanks to Cathy Day for setting up this list, and for a really
valuable web site. I am interested in the Barton and Collins families in
India. My ancestors on both sides have lived in India since the early 1800's
having originated in Kent and Middlesex. My grandfather Barton owned Barton
& Son jewellers in Bangalore, and my grandfather Collins was the medical
officer at the Singarenie collieries in Hydrabad, and later owned J.B.
Forster's pharmacy in Bangalore. Other names of ancestors in India to which
I am related are Edwards, Mervyn-Smith, Chennell, Stanford, Baker, Chamrette
and Orr.
If anyone has come across these names I would appreciate any leads to follow
up.
Best wishes to all,
Clive Collins
