Hi Sandie looked at everything on site it does not go into anything about Aden,  62coy is not mentioned anywhere, is there any way I can find out what 62coy did in Aden or even when they were there :(

what sort of time span are we looking at?  1900's or 1800's

are you sure of the company  62nd

Hi Sandie had a look at that sight still no mention of Aden. I am sure of company, it came from Medal Roll. The date I am looking for is between 1914- 1921 really appreciate the help you are giving me thank you :)
