« on: Sunday 15 January 06 15:48 GMT (UK) »
I wonder if someone could help me trying to find this gentleman on the census, not my strongest point, I cannot find him.
He attested in The Rifle Brigade on the 8th June 1892 on a short service attestation having previously served in the same Regiment but was discharged by purchase.
His NOK is given as Father George who was a Baker and lived in Dunbeath, Caithness, Scotland. Donald's age was given as 23 years and 7 months on attestment and he enlisted in Bristol. He was discharged time expired on 7/6/04.
Any help would be gratefully received.

Trevor,
Thats the one, many many thanks. It looks like 11 Alberta Street on his Attestion papers.
By the way, I hope that you have had time to read the officers papers from Kew on your relation.
