Hi
For searching in India generally, there is the FIBIS Fibiwiki Beginners's Guide
http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Beginners'_Guide
There is a Fibiwiki page Kolar Gold Fields, for general background
http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Kolar_Gold_Fields
There is a Fibiwiki page 81st Regiment of Foot which was the original name of the 2nd
Battalion, for general background. The Loyal North Lancashire Regiment, which appears to
have arrived in Bangalore in 1910, and left in 1914 for East Africa.

Possibly there may be a mention of one of the men in one of the online directories, see
the Fibiwiki page
