Help please
« on: Sunday 17 April 05 12:47 BST (UK) »
Hi, I have an ancestor who was in the Army Service
Corps from at least 1901 to when he died in the last few weeks of the First World War. I have already found his Medal Index Card and have found out where his grave is on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Site but could anybody please tell me where I might be able to find any other papers about his time in the Army.

Hi,
The National Archives will show you what is available for the Army during this period: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/
You may also wish to contact any Museums associated with his Regiment/Corps as they may be able to offer more specific advice.

Good luck with your research!!

Ryan.
