Hoi I am looking for the parents of Archibald Riddle. All I no is that he died at the isle of Wight on The tenth of august 1811. He was a soldier Greetings Jan en Marga (Holland)

Hi Marga With so little information, it can only be a guess, but I think he may have been from Scotland. If you do a search on the IGI using http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=igi/search_I GI.asp&clear_form=true it finds 25 people called Archibald RIDDLE born between 1750 and 1790 and they're all born in Scotland. Obviously it could be none of these, but certainly with my family, the first names given tend to repeat within a branch and/or location. There are RIDDLEs in Hampshire too, but I can't see any Archibalds. I think I'm right in saying that there were soldiers stationed on the island from all over the British Isles - someone on this list will certainly have more knowledge of this than I have. Have you got any other information or clues about Archibald? He sounds rather interesting :-) Best wishes Kate in sunny Devon, UK always seeking my RANNcestors, everywhere. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marga Sent: 22 April 2008 09:29 To: [email protected] Subject: [IoW] archiebald riddle Hoi I am looking for the parents of Archibald Riddle.
