Surnames: Buchanan, Howarth, Goff Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/5MZ.2ACEB/2.69.1.1.2 Message Board Post: A couple things I should have mentioned regarding the Buchanan father, he was born in 1820, d. August 23, 1893. Also, the family were Protestants. We have family oral history that the father may have been a major in the British Army, and stationed in India, probably before his marriage.Is this matching up?
