George Fitton - 75th Regiment of Foot

[Suebartlett]

Hi Karen,
I haven't done any family history for ages, but just popped in this afternoon to have a quick look around.
I too have Fittons, mine were from York, and prior to that they were from Kilnhurst, Whitkirk, and Leeds.
My Gt Grandmother had a Gt Uncle (a Fitton) who was in India, I don't know who it is likely to be, but a family story says that he left a will, all his money would go to the person who remembered his middle names (there were supposed to be lots), but my Dad says his Grandma didn't know them!!
While searching my Fittons, I have also found them spelt Feetham and Fitten.
This doesn't really help you, but thought I would contact you as a fellow Fitton researcher!
Sue

If not found in the Army registers, his marriage cert may be available at the India Office at the British Library in London. By the way, if his Army papers have survived at Kew they will give year of birth, rather than actual date.
