My Grandmother Annie Louisa was born in England with the surname Willdock. It is an unusual name in England. I've traced her Willdock line back to a Soldier who fought in Egypt for England, who was blinded in battle and retired to England. It is Lewis Willdock or Wildock or Weldock, born in Amsterdam in 1762. Wikitree profile: Willdock-9
I have memberships for Ancestry and FindmyPast and MyHeritage, but can't find any info on him or ancestors from Holland.
I noticed there is a WikiTree group active on Dutch profiles so I would be interested if anyone was able to find out about Lewis in Holland before he became a Soldier and his ancestors?
I am new to WikiTree this year and I have so far made 917 contributions and still adding people and sources.
any help would be appreciated.
