thanks argylgran - it is the the three brothers from Como who we think Louis may nbe realted to but cannot prove. I have had contact with the author of the one name study and he has drawn the same blank with Louis's parents. He is trying to link Louis with Lorenco Louis Bellatti a clockmaker/engraver

I have not heard of these people. I know from the Musters of the 89th Louis was in India from 1858 until his death in 1865. I don't know where he is buried. and apart form his marriage certificate saying his father was Louis Ballati I cannot trace his ancestors.

AnnCardiff thanks it just shows how many variations of the name exist. My sons are the last of Louis's line and I thought such an unusual name would be easy to trace - wrong I have had an easier ride with my mother's side of Warburton!
