pre WW1 service record?
« on: Wednesday 28 March 07 21:07 BST (UK) »
Does anyone know if the pre world war one service records (1861-91) are available at the LDS centres on microfilm?

Thanks,
chesters.

Chesters,
The service records you are looking for come under WO/97 at the National Archives and they are original papers not on microfilm.
