Does anybody know of a Corleine Wilson born in India approx 1921/22

She was the daughter of Philip (Duncan) Wilson and mother Margery, born in India

Philip Duncan was personal assistant to the military secretary General Hastings Isme ,in the time of Lord Willingdon.

Enquiring on behalf of my father in law who was a cousin to her. His mother was Rachel Eugiene Wilson who married James Coulton Hedley

Hello Linda

I have checked all the usual places and come up blank.

The only record I can find is from findmypast passenger records. Philip and Marjorie travel to India in 1934. No sign of a Corleine, although I would not be surprised if they had been on a "trip home" they may have left the child in India.

Perhaps someone else can do better.

Good luck

Hi Loki

Thank you for looking

I know he did travel with his job, also that eventually his marriage failed.

But I cannot find anything solid on him. His father was one of 6 sons and 11 children altogether. I just cannot find which one. Made more difficult by it all happening in India.
