    3. I had a look at the Family search website out of interest, as my husband's family were in the army in India for a long period in the 1800's. I had previously researched in the India collections in the British Library, but I found a lot more entries on this website than I managed to find at the library. I also found that there were many mis-spellings or transcription errors on the website, so it is worth using wildcard searches, e.g. with an asterisk after the first few letters of the surname. I found Morphett entered as Morphete, Morphell and Morphott, Marphett, and Harphett. Liz Pinkney, Cheshire
