Hi Annie ..just saw this ... does this mean i may be able to find Grandad John Reynolds who I think was in India for the 1901 census .../? I keep coming back to him as so little  is known about him . Out of my comfort zone on this board as I 'm not very au fait . with checking any military resources .... :-[

Re-www.ancestry.co.uk Above.
I have tried on a number of occasions to access information on this site using a number of names.
I have used exact spelling and details re Names DOB 's etc. Negative result each time.
