Jim Clay Posted 17 October , 2008 Share Posted 17 October , 2008 Chris I would have thought they'd be in the GRO overseas death indexes, which are on Findmypast.com. I'll have a look if you can give a name or names. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisharley9 Posted 17 October , 2008 Author Share Posted 17 October , 2008 Jim I have a funny feeling that the deaths in India were recorded separtely He is Capt St J V Baker 11th Lancers died 2nd Dec 1915 at Delhi Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Clay Posted 17 October , 2008 Share Posted 17 October , 2008 Chris Checked War Deaths, Army Returns and Consular Returns for 1915/1916 - nothing found, I'm afraid. I wonder if something might be found in the India Office records at the British Library? Just a thought... Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
