Birth/Baptism in Gibraltar.

**Martin** · 04-04-2011 04:02 PM

Hi. Researcher. This is Martin Gray. I am looking for 3 birth/baptism records in Gibraltar (S.W.Europe)
My 2 x grt. garandfather, John Gray, was with the Royal Artillery in Gibraltar c.1850 - 1860. He was married there in 1853 to a Spanish girl Maria Conception Macari in the Kings Chapel. I have their marriage record. They had 3 children all born in Gibraltar. John c.1854. Elizabeth c.1856 and Mary c.1857. But I can find no trace of their births or baptisms. I know the year dates from the 1861 census when John Gray snr. was resident at Aldershot with his family. Would love to find their birth/baptism records.

Hi. Milford Lass. Sorry for the delay in getting back. I have been in touch with Joshua Hassan House and no luck. Also The Kings Chapel with no luck. Any other suggestions ?

Martin.

Hi. Elsabels.

I have some 'Attestations for Millitia Volunteers' papers for John Gray after he became a Chesea Pensioner, from Find my Past.com, but non of these gives any info on his children. One set though gives info on his initial assestation into the Royal Artillery at Stonehaven (not sure where this is) in 1847 and his discharge at Woolwich in 1868. These are the only service records I have found. Any other suggestions would be gratefully received.
