GEORGE Bengal. I am looking for information
on the Surname George. I know that one of the countries that it originated from was Southern India. From doing research on
ancestry.com it was stated that a long time ago people who moved to the united states from india used george as their surname.
I dont have much information about this surname. All I know is that my grandfather has features of an indian so do I, my father
died when I was very young; and the origination of our last name and family ethnic backgroung was never discussed. I would
appreciate it if someone could give me a bit more information on this surname. Thank You. Contact: Schree George

GIBB Bengal.
My grandfather- James Rosenfeld Gibb (27/9/1901-13/12/1984) was born in Burma in 1901 to his father James
Gibb (an engineer) and mother Jane Carter Gibb (nee Younger)(1860-1945).
James senior died in Burma when my grandad was very young and my great gran and my grandad must have come back to Scotland
together. I can not find details of my great grandads death so can't find details of his birth and therefore cant trace my
line back further in the Gibb name. I dont know what ship they went to Burma on or on the one they came back
on. Please can someone help as I really want to find more about them all and every lead so far is a dead end due to lack of
information or available source material. Thanks. Contact: Andy Gibb

GORDON Madras 1830-1871. Searching for info about
Emily Gordon (my GGM) who married William Mussen Campbell at Coonoor, Madras on 8th Sept 1871. Her father
was James William Gordon. He was at the wedding, so he may have worked in India. Family rumour says that
he was a missionary, but I don't know whether this was a full time profession, or whether he had some other role in the British
Army in India, or in the Indian Civil Service, or other. I would love to know who his wife was (Emily's mother). Maybe they
too were married in India. The only other information I have is that one of Emily Gordon's ancestors (grandmother
or great grandmother?) was called Sophia Hyde (or Hythe?). I have a miniature portrait of
her. It's also possible that Emily had a sister Sally Hythe (or Hyde?) Gordon. Any information
on any of these people, however indirect, would be most welcome! Contact: Rowan Sylvester-Bradley Website: www.sylvester-bradley.org
