Ann McNiven died a pauper, single, (father Duncan, mother Sarah) at Portmore, on 28 June 1878 aged 80 years [sic] and her brother, Stuart McNiven was informant. If Duncan was in the British army then the records are all held at Kew, London. Jill
Could I just add to Jill's note that the army records are at Kew, that these records are accessable on line at findmypast.co.uk. This is not a free site but I am a member at the moment and if anyone wants a soldier looked up then I can do so. Jim Morison
