Family in india

**kari** · 13-12-2010 04:49 PM

I have contacted the india records office as i am still looking for the birth of my gr gr gr gr gr grandfather Richard Wheeler but unfortunately they have no other information other than that that is already on his marriage certificate. He married Adelaide Ahier in 1808 at the time he was a lieutenant in the service of H.H Nizzam, he was later promoted to captain. Is there a way to search army records from around 1770 ? as i feel now this may be the only way i could find information on him.

To assist members this is the prev link on the WHEELER family

Hello

When you say the 'india record office' can you give a link for them.

The alternative maybe to contact fibis.org.uk a family history society dedicated to the indian sub continent and members of the Army and EIC ( East India Company)

Do you think he was bon in India & possibly died there? or was he born in England & maybe reurned . I looked on the 1841 census - but without knowing where he would be I couldn' help, Is it Army or Naval records ?
