Hello, I have spent the afternoon trying to find the service record of my Grandfather William Edward Bailey who was in the Army (?). I have his service number and on this marriage lines in1918 he was in the 3rd Reserve (London) I am really lost,it all looks like a mine-field. ( no pun intended ) Regards Sheila |
