Appointed from India or London? edit

I understood that the governors of the Straits Settlements were appointed from Bengal until the SS became a Crown Colony in 1867, meaning that Ord was the first to be appointed by the Colonial Office. I don't have specific information about Fullerton, but the reference here to his being appointed in London looks like it might be a mistake. I wonder if someone with better information could confirm one way or the other? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Laughing sandbags (talkcontribs) 13:08, 22 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
