Thanks again for all your time searching that for me. I was banging my head up the wall.
This is for an old man, I'm sure he will be blown away by all this information when my niece gives it to him. His house burnt down so we have something to give back when he lost so much.
All these Roberts are driving me mad!!

?? If Robert was serving from 1806 onwards this marriage may be possible -
Ann Arney 14 April 1823 Minster-in-Sheppey, Kent. Again from IGI

IGI shows an Anne Elizabeth Truelove christened 19 MAr 1824 Rathkeale, Limerick, Ireland. Parents Robert Truelove and Anne. It is an extracted record. Was she the first child with Robert to follow in 1826 and then the rest as per 1841 census. Jane and Thomas not on IGI but William, George and Henry are.
Was this another generation in the Army?

Coming forward the IGI (Asia)shows Christina (1871 census by Alviegal). Born 25 December 1863, christened 22 February 1864 Madras, Tamil Nadu, India. Again an extracted record.

I'm doing some research for my niece to give to her husbands grandfather. I got to George Truelove b1860 Ireland. He married Henrihetta in Lincoln Lincs. The problem is with his parents. I think Robert Truelove b1826, he is in census in 1871 with Ann. (Earlier I think he was in Ireland). But looking for a marriage for Robert and Ann it seems to come down to Ann Cawthorne, but she (looking at her birthdate too) dosen't seem old enough. The other option is Mary Ann Thompson, who also doesn't seem to add up. Any advice please?
Used freebmd, and find my past parish registers and births.
