Dear Jan
One of my family Fanny Bayard Bray was engaged to Captain Hugh Spottiswoode who was killed during the Indian Mutiny at Nasirabad. I know that Hugh is a well used name in the Spottiswoode family so I can interested in finding anything to do with his parents and how he fits into the family. Fanny survived the mutiny and ended up living with Mrs Brind, daughter of Lady Sale of the Diary of the Cabul retreat, and was governess to Mrs Brinds daughters. Anything you maybe able to assist with reagrding Hugh's parentage would be greatly appreciated. Regards Kenn
