Hi all the family are looking for the birth details of my Great grandfather Hector Hippolyte David and his parents. We don't have his birth records but do have all his records up until his death in London. His marriage certificate says he was born in burgundy France but no place and we have his father's name Hector David and his occupation carpenter but not his father's place of birth and nothing for his mother. |

Thanks very much Kevin. We do have all the information you gave us. The information we need is to do with finding his place of birth in France. |

His naval records are available to download on the documentsonline site, if you don't already have them. It costs £3-50. The index gives birthplace as Burgundy, France, but don't know whether the document itself might be more specific! |
