==Marriages 1840-1863: Journal article==
Marriages between EIC soldiers and [[Anglo Indians]] or [[Native Woman|Native women]], the allowances paid to wives and the army records kept regarding these wives are discussed in "Haemoglobin D (B Punjab) in an East Anglian Family", ''The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland'', Vol. 95, No. 2 (Jul. - Dec., 1965), pp. 295-306. The article (including an extract) and its implications are the subject of this [http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/india/2010-01/1264031553 archived India List thread]. The 2nd Madras (European) Light Infantry is particularly mentioned as marriage registers were (in 1965) available for the period 1840-1863 showing the race of the bride. The article may be read online on the subscription website JSTOR. Some card holders of participating libraries may have access, refer [[Miscellaneous tips]]. Also available at the [[British Library]]
