I have two rellies born in Turkey 1861 and 1863 - British parents and father was a labourer in an iron works. Would he have been sent to Turkey to work in this field ? Its the only thing I can think of - someone looked up military for me and found nothing. Mary |

Hi Alan, do you know if she was a naturalised british citizen? if so there is a way of finding the cert, but i'm not sure how. My gg grandfather is the same, bn france, naturalized british citizen. Have a look on the records board, entry by bernard seeling - german born british subject. |

I'm trying to find birth of Margaret Davison Palfreman born St. Petersburg, Russia. Year of birth fluid depending upon which census or other document used - currently between 1866 and 1869. Second given name not always used. Father - Iron Forgeman and family back in UK by 1881. Any advice on way foreward would be appreciated Thanks Alan. |
