Metropolitan Police records for Sergeant James W. Harding
« on: Friday 01 September 17 12:14 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I am looking for any files relating to my 3x great-grandfather, James Westcott Harding. He was born in 1846, in Thorverton, Devon. He married Sarah Brown Wyatt, in 1867, in Frindsbury, Kent. He died in 1910, in Balham, Surrey. He was listed as a police officer on his wedding certificate. He served in the Metropolitan Police up until his retirement in 1893. I have tried to view the record on Ancestry, but I can only view the first page, where it says his name, his pension details etc. Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Adam

All I've been able to view is the first page, where it gives his name, rank, date of retirement and pension.
