    1. [S21] Other Researchers - Chris Van de Byl.
      I think this information is from Phyllis Chamarette. She gives his name as James, but says he married Lucy Bailey, and had a son James, who had a daughter Una who married Arthur Chamarette. So they must be the same. This matches up with the St George's website and the Chamarette Family Tree compiled by the Australian branch of the family

    2. [S84] Other Researchers - Edith Gosse.
      Brigadier Chamarette's son was my Mother's father, this was confirmed by Ali Eledroos whose father was the CinC of the Nizams Army at the same time. Brig. Chamarette was General Eledroos second in command.
