Many thanks Merry. Lots of homework to do. Dunbar's brother Robert was Lt-Col commanding Scots Guards and died at his mother's house in Portman Square 13 April 1804. Dunbar's death had just reached England the week before so she lost both sons within a week! No wonder she demanded Charlotte be sent to her! Incidentally, that confirms the 1803 death date so correct then Charlotte would have been one when her father died so that reinforces my theory that Seraphina headed to Calcutta with her to start a new life. What a tragic life she had. Pity she never knew both daughters did so well!
