Hi
Can any one help me to find out where I might try to locate info on the Hereford Militia and where & when they were serving outside of the Country. My 2 GGF William Henry Howell was a colour sergeant with them. He had sons born in Ireland from abt 1855 - 1858 (can't find any certificates for them) & by 1861 was at Bartonsham Barracks, Hereford and died in 1865.
Thanks Gaye

Hello Gaye, welcome to RootsChat
Contact Hereford Archives http://www.herefordshire.gov.uk/leisure/archives/3584.asp they will be able to tell you the records they hold.
If you Google search for Hereford Militia, lots of sites come up.

Gaye,
Ask especially about inter-library loan if it is not available from your local Library. Amazing what one can get hold of that way.

Do that and save your money for certificates- unfortuantely those don't come on any loan program about which I have heard. Pity about that.
Good luck

Hi
No, thats all!
However tell me, as I am new to RootsChat whats the difference with the ranking at the side of the posting - I see I'm an "extra", you're a "senior" and I've noticed other rankings?

It's just that I have chatted more than you- just a matter of time and involvement with the site. When you get to say 250 posts you become a Senior I think it is- was feeling a Senior long before rootschat told me.. but that is a quite different point.
Liverpool Annie who knows everthing, has many thousand of posts and made so many people great suggestions that she is now something very grand in rootschat like "Queen Bee of the rootschat hive"- that's very frivolous and not at all what rank she has but she is a great conrtributor and it is recognised by the number of stars she has and her status- as are others.
Maybe someone will give you are far more serious, factual explanation than mine but until then, this gives the general drift to you.
Keep chatting.
