Armed Forces / UK Royal Navy Service Record Early 1800s - Need Help Deciphering
« on: Monday 02 July 18 05:38 BST (UK) »
I'm researching someone who was a member of the Royal Naval Service in the first one-third of the 1800s. I located, paid for, and downloaded some records from The National Archives; however, I'm having some trouble deciphering what some of the entries mean. There are also remarks in the file, perhaps left by a commanding officer, that I can read (but not always); however the associated meanings are unclear to me.
Wondering if there is anyone who would be willing to help me understand the records if I sent them to them (one-half page really, with a second page with a few remarks) as Googling for answers hasn't gotten me very far.
Hope it's not inappropriate for me to ask this, but was hoping since I located, paid for, downloaded and didn't post the records in the general forum it might be OK. If not, let me know.
Thanks!
