A tip: If you are searching for a soldier in Alderney in 1881
« on: Friday 16 April 10 08:41 BST (UK) »
It is more than likely that you will not find the person's name, he will more likely than not be one of hundreds that will be found thus:

Search by address
Residential place: Alderney
County: Guernsey & Adjacent Islands

Click on search, then various addresses will be given. Scroll down to the end and click on Other establishments. Scroll down to Military In Alderney and there are officers, men, labourers, and wives, with solely numbers of people of certain ages, but with no names.

RG number: RG11 Piece: 5632  Folio: 97 Page: 11     
Registration District: Adjacent Islands Sub District: Adjacent Islands - Alderney Enumeration District: Ecclesiastical Parish:
Civil Parish: Alderney Municipal Borough: Address: Military In Alderney, Alderney County: Alderney
