While extracting "Indians" for FIBIS from the Kelly's Handbook of 1892 I found the entry below. Do these papers still exist somewhere, if so they may be very helpful...... Peter Rogers ""Maj-Gen.

Hi Melanie There is a Wellington in the Nilgiri Hills in South India. The Madras Army had a base there.

Hello List Melanie said: A relative is listed on the Indian Army Quarterly List (Jan 1912) as an assistant surgeon, 4th class, Indian Medical Services. Under Remarks it says "Wellington." Would this be his place of birth or referring to something else? The only Wellington I know of is New Zealand. There was a cantonment near Ootacamund called Wellington. See the FIBIS Fibiwiki page Ootacamund http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Ootacamund Cheers Maureen (Sydney)

Hi Melanie, What Herbie says maybe correct, if you want photos end of last year, can send you the link. I missed the message in full. cheers ronnie

Hi Melanie Your Wellington may well be the one in South India in the Nilgiri Hills-when we lived nearby in Coonoor, it still had a cordite factory & was a military establishment. Regards. Herbie
