shirley
There is a big age gap with the girls 1854.1864 and 1878! is that possible. I pity jane ann then!!

Maybe they married in India. you should check the Miltary records on Find my Past.
www.FindMyPast.co.uk

It pay to view or subs but i dont subcribe to it so cant help .

well my mum had children from 1930 to 1949 !!

I am checking everything I can think of on FMP for Nicky Shirley..

No Michael Carney of that regiment on Chelsea Pensioners.

But Im not trawling for a marriage with nothing definite for dates as that is as bad as looking for Mr Jones..

Edits.
Rechecked for her birth ref on FMP ,but still nothing.

Fanny,#How weird? re birth ref!
I have got the hardest family ever to research. But as they say, some news is better than nowt!!!!!! xxxx
Thanx xxxxx

Well.

Just adding my 2 penneth worth in, could he have not been part of the military by the time Amelia was born and he had maybe taken up a residency position in local government?

I know ALOT of my Skinner lot went over to india early to late 1800's and none of their births are on the military indices, instead they are all on local records. I suppose it will be base on whether they were 'stationed' there or whether they were 'living' there!!

If your lot were actually living in India and taking part in local government the births will not be on the military paperwork.

We now know the mother's forenames are Jane Ann, and that she married Michael John Carney, we also, it appears, have at least 2 siblings to your relative, the earliest being born in 1854.

It takes time Nicky to find it all.... give us more time and we'll hopefully find you answers!

flipping hell, they opbviously had no telly hahahahahahahaha
thank you soo much tracey, this is really hilarious!!!

OK.
If everyone is certain sure that Michael John Carney and Jane Ann are Minnie Amelia Carneys parents even though her baptism has not been found ,then I will look for one of the other childrens birth records to send for so Jane Anns maiden name can be found out.
Big gap between 1864 and 1878 though,but of course fertility is starting to wane and miscarriages and stillborns may have happened.

Nope,not a one of them appear on FMP overseas births.

I have also checked ScotlandsPeople for service returns,again ,nothing.
Nor incoming passengers on Ancestry.

I am certain that they must be the parents of Minnie. I read somewhere she was born 1880, dnt ask me where i got that from, can't remeber. Maybe she wasn't baptised? She was defo brn in Barllie? nor sure of spelling defo India, her daddy was in the army as prev stated. This is v exciting!

FBG maybe she went thro the change late hahahahahahahaha

That is strange. He was defo in the army in bengal peshawar? area, cos we believe my minnie amelia met her hubby over there, coz he was also an army man.

Tracey said if thy were stationed there as opposed to living there thy might be on the local government papers? Does that help Fanny?

I dont do papers Nicky,wouldnt know where to start.
Find long lost unknown half uncles births I might,but Army stuff and newspapers I am C#p at.

Don't believe you! x You are the best!!!!! Give yorself a shiny, or failing that, go and have a cuppa....
