Hi everyone,I haven't got any further as yet with Thomas Bunting or his father Abraham.
However,I have just got the information that in 1884 Thomas' son William Thomas b.1863 enlisted in the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders.William apparently only stayed in for 3yrs being discharged in 1887 with debility.
Now please can someone tell me if I am wrong -wouldn't he need to have Scottish ancestry to be able to enlist with the Argylls.Perhaps if that is true then I have been looking in the wrong direction for Abraham his Grandfather.
Can you advise me please.
Betty
