Tracy, you're welcome. Just a little tip when searching National archives, service numbers can change so you have probably been too specific. All I did was search for his name, then on the left of the screen you can narrow down the search to what branch of military you want - you can also narrow down by date ranges (Which I didn't do as there weren't many to check through). Take a look and try again - and I think you'll find the records as I did. |

I'm hoping someone can please help with locating the full military record for Edmund DRAKE born 1831 in Jersey, Channel Islands. Edmund died about Mar 1922 in Cardiff, Wales. |
