Just to clarfify what Annie G has said. There are 2 series of WW1 service records - the "pension" records and the "service" records. The pension records for the whole alphabet are virtually complete on Ancestry - I think just the "missorts"are missing. The "service" records are only complete up to the letter N on Ancestry (and the missorts for the whole alphabet). |

How do I find the military record of a soldier who was Honourably Discharged in 1916. All the lists seem to be of those killed in the war. Thanks, Brenda |
