I am looking for a Fred Lawrence the father of my great grandfather Frederick Lawrence who served, and was killed, with the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers during the First World War. I believe that Fred Lawrence was born in 1854 but for some unknown reason his son, my great grandfather, was born in Kusali, India in 1877. How Fred Lawrence got to India or why is a mystery. I suspect that he was also in the British Army to be in India at that time. Does anyone have any information on Fred Lawrence?
