info from amanda boden  amandaboden@ntlworld.com
Hi my name is Amanda, I'm hoping that some one might be able to help me with some info on my great grandfather. All i know about him and his wife is that he was serving in India under the black watch his name was Tommy Wilson. At some point he married my grandmother Edith Brook or BROOKS after leaving the Army he then worked for the railway at JAJA as a engine driver, My great grandmother then passed away when my Nan was only 3yrs old so the girls were put in st josephs convent until they left and came to England. I think Tommy remarried. my Nan left the convent in the 1940 some time and she was the youngest. any info would be greatly received. Amanda Boden
