Thanks for looking Maddie, the bottom one is one of mine, he stole again after he was let out and ended up dying on a hospital ship after being on one of the hulks.Maybe one day I'll find more on my John Houstoun from Frome.

Can anyone with Ancestry worldwide membership help please...

- under- North America family history 1500-2000 there is listed a John Houstoun

I have a John Houstoun born 1765 Frome, Somerset, England who died about 1835 in Boston, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Wondered if it might be mine.

Thanks
