Hi Francesca, I'm afraid UK arrivals records don't go that far back - they start at 1878. |

Hi Alviegal, yes we have all those. Just strange mother for Ellen is Catherine not Mary. I've checked all records and there was another John Binns in the 53rd reg. But he was in 2nd battalion and they didn't go to India from what I've read. It was just the 1st battalion,which is a shame cos that could have been an explanation for that. Thank you for your reply. |
