William Henry Family In India

I am trying to discoverwhere my fathers family originated from in Ireland. The surname is Henry and the Christian name used is mainly William. My Grandfather was Frederick Henry who married Dorothy Dashwood in Kidderpore in 1918. My great grandfather was William Henry who married Harriet Jessie Dashwood in 1891 in Arsikere. My great great grandfather was William Henry who married Mary Ann Finnerty in 1859 in Vizagapatam. I know that my great great great grandfather was called William but I have know other details for him. I would love to find out more about the pie roots in Ireland. There is no doubt that the family originates from Ireland but unfortunately I do not know where to start. I would like to see if any members recognise the family treee described.

Bill,

I am not sure if you are aware of the India records at the British Library, at this link https://www.bl.uk/collection-guides/india-office-records. There is some information online but more is available at the library itself.

Best wishes, Kieran Jordan
