Is there anyone else researching the Harris family from Tingewick Buckingham?
I traced back from my gt gt grandmother BENEDICTA HARRIS and have recently obtained the army record for her father BENJAMIN HARRIS
He was a soldier with the 14th Regiment of Foot in which he joined in 1812 and served with for 28 years.
Benjamin spent many years in the East Indies, and it is possible (I wonder) some of his children may have been born overseas? the only information I have for his children are so far that of Benedicta, she was baptised in Tingewick in 1814
So if anyone is researching Benjamin`s family or has information on him, I would be delighted to hear from you, to share our family history
