    3. Hello List, One of our group has found that the family of John and Sarah BROMWICH of Rugby had three children, a girl and two boys; between 1815 and 1820. Now the question to me is why would they have one child in England and the other two in France if the parent was a brick labourer. Can anyone advise me on this? For I have no idea... Regards, For I am a storyteller with a tale to spin.... Ezziej Bromwich BROMWICH SCRIBE __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

    3. When children are born in several different countries, the question to ask is was the man a soldier or a marine? 1815 to 1820 is the period immediately after the defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo, when many British regiments were stationed in France. Just because a man was a bricklayer doesn't stop him being a soldier at one time. The places where the children were born may give a clue to what regiment the man was in, if indeed he was a soldier. If you tell me the places, I can look up for you what the likely regiment was. Also try searching the National Archives army records for a soldier of that name.
