Thank you for sending me his Finishing paper.
As it show the date and age when he both joined and left the Army i can now narrow his Birth to August/September 1836
This help me a lot as i can now check at Bristol records office for his Baptism and hopefully find his parents and any siblings if he had any.
Thanks
Tina

Thanks Tina, Good luck with your research. Have sent you a pm.

Regards Vera

Would love to know the outcome please??

i will post on here once i find anything.

Chris
I have just phoned my dad how is 83 and he said he thinks he has a photo of him. i will have to go and see if he can find it.

My dad has just said the he was told that William met his wife who work with Florence Nightingale, with would tie in with the 1901 census for Margaret being a Nurse. posted earlier.

I can not say how grateful i am that everyone has helped me so much.
I am just hoping that this all ties in together.

yes this is my William on reading of it and it states where he was living on the 1881 census and it also mentions my Great grandad Francis.

I can not believe i have been stuck all this time and i have now found out so much about him and what he did.

thank you

How fantastic to put a face to the name...Chris what a great find. Well done.

Regards Vera

(sorry folks, the link has stretched the page!)

Well he looks a grand chap I must say, well done him!...would think there is more to be found, newspapers, Bristol Archives perhaps...

Chris :)

(now orf'' to cut grass, bit of rare sun here!)

Just read that about William. What a find!!!!!! :-D :-D :-D and a picture too.

When I was looking through the millitary records I did see a Samuel Stone on the same page as a William and a Henry Stone.

Mel
I see something about Samuel Stone and there were in the same regiment. Do not know where he fits in, but there are a few Stone in the area at that time.

On reading the report I am happy this is my William. So i know his mum name was Harriett...according to what it says for the 1851 census.

Hello Everyone that helped me.
Just to let you know that the marriage Certificate of William Stone in India has arrived but has not helped me in my research.
I shows that he married on 30 Dec 1860 Lucknow East Indies, there are no fathers names on there so this did not help me to find out who there fathers were and has Wife Margaret has her name as Margaret Walsh (Widow) so i am unable to find her maiden name. So i do not know if she married first time in England Derby was here birth polace on the 1881 census or India
They did look for Francis Birth for 1872 but this came back that they were unable to trace him.
I may have to order one of his siblings births in India as i have the GRO index number already given on this thread already.

Does anyone know if this would have the maiden name on???

Thankyou again for everyone that help me in the pasts
