Does anyone have info on Jane Eveline Stacey born1870 died in 1919 in Jubulpur, India. She married a William French in 1894. Father's name Thomas Stacey, possibly lived in Agra.
15 Mar. I am now looking for Jane Evelyn's mother's Christian and maiden name.
Jane and William French's eldest son was Chief of Police in Nagpur, mahashtra, India. Until he retired in 1950 and came to England.
