I know it is difficult to find Indian records so if any one can add to what i have would be grateful.
My 2x Gt Grandfather William Nelson Shilstone was a mariner and went to India a lot of times. He had a daughter Indiana (Judiana) born 21 Aug 1834 in Calcutta. I do not know who her mother was.
She married William J Mcarthur and they had 4 children in the Bengal area.
William b 1862 Henry Hayley b 1863 Arthur Stanley b 1865 d 1899 Adelaide b 1871
I can find no info on the boys ie who they married and children etc but Adelaide married George Beaver b 1862 they married in Darjeeling 17th March 1894 and had a daughter Ida A Beaver b 1898 who i believe died in Cork Ireland 1947. I would like this confirmed if possible plus some information on the boys. I wonder if they came to Ireland as well!
Fingers crossed

Hello Jennifer,
Every so often I surf the internet looking for information on the Beaver family as I am a descendant of them and today I came across your post. Adelaide is my great grandmother. I will get back to you again in a few days with some information.
