    1. Re: [INDIA] The Lawrence School, Sanawar
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: maureenr5 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.asia.india.general/2834.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: There is a baptismal record on FamilySearch https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FG3S-8VM You can request a photocopy of the full record from Family Search for free, see http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Family_Search_Centres. This would give you the regiment the father was in, which may enable you to trace him further in muster rolls. There are some online documents on the school website. Details are in the FIBIS Fibiwiki link http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Lawrence_Military_Asylum#Lawrence_School.2C_Sanawar Whether there would be anything relevant for you, I don't know. However, even if there was anything, it would probably be only what you will get from the baptismal record. In 1855/1856 most of the children were transferred from the Lower Orphan School, Calcutta. Emma may , or may not, have been one of these. I suspect that the records may be non existent if she was one of those who were transferred.
