hoping to find is some proof of William Henry Scott¹s birth at Poona in
1839/40, wishfully thinking there may be some other reference to him and
also, any mention of his parents, Robert Scott and Catherine Crawford. In
this way, perhaps I can push knowledge of this line back further and find
more about them before they went to India.>>>>

I have in my data base a "... 2 Robert Scott Crawford 1836 - 1836 "
died in infancy

as per the attached listing of Crawfords - mainly in India, HEIC.

There is a second Crawford-Scott linkage albeit one generation removed as
+Percy Hamilton Scott - 1942. - see below

This may be of help to you since often colonial families had several linking
marriages.- also William and Henry weree recurrent names.
