Hi I wonder if anyone can help me, I am new to genealogy in Scotland. I am looking for a Murdoch BROWN born circa 1750 in Edinburgh who went to India in 1775 via Lisbon where he spent the rest of his life and died in 1828 in Tellicherry, India. Murdoch Brown was one of the first British Settlers and worked for the Honourable East India Company. It is believed he was Supt. of Police and was an Overseer of a large Plantation which he later owned. In searching for his birth in Edinburgh on the IGI I have found one possibility of a Murdoch BROUN b. 3 Jun 1754 to Samuel BROUN and Agnes SCOULLER. The film has no other children for this couple. It is possible that this could be the correct entry for the Murdoch I am searching as his first son had the middle name of Samuel and his first daughter was called Agnes. Has anyone got a Murdoch BROWN in their tree? Or could anyone please give me some advice on how to locate his siblings and check his parents to enable be to go back. Any help will be appreciated. Linda
