Hi Colin,
The last few years I have been trying to trace my Husbands G/father Henry Spiers, who was told he came from Armagh N.I. Went to India to study under his uncles who were drs, then came to Australia. The birth certificate of one of his children said that his birthplace was Madras West Indies. We only know of him as Henry, no second name. here in Australia the name was spelt in different ways eventually it came down to Spiers. Some people say thats a good German name. Henry married Jane Henderson out here in Aust. who came from Monaghan N.I. So just thought I would say Hi. I posted my name on page 1 in search of Henry. Joy
