Lt. General Robert Douglas son of sir George Douglas of Friarshaw, Laird of Belches and Burland and Elisabeth Scott. of Ancrum
Robert was born 1727 Edinburg and buried Zierikzee The Netherlands 1809. He is gr grandfather of my gr grandfather.
My 4x great grandfather Major James Douglas married Atcha Babee and had
four children to her in Bombay India where he served with the East India Company.
I thought she must be Indian but I found on the IGI index that the name Babee
was common in Drenthe Holland in the 19th century.I think now she might be
Dutch.Is Atcha a Dutch name. Cheers. Steve.

If I can be of any assistance, then please do get in touch.
Yours aye,
