The Royal Artillery
« on: Sunday 30 January 05 21:20 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone,

I'm wondering how you would go about finding anything out about the Royal Artillery. Is there somewhere that you could contact in order to get information about relatives who served in the Royal Artillery, and if so, how far back do their records go?

Also, is there anywhere on the web that I could go for the Royal Artillery of eras gone?

If anyone could help me with this, I would be most grateful.

Thanks everyone.

Best wishes,
Sgt Tollers
