Dear Chris I think Kew would be the place for muster rolls etc,. Have you had a look at Kevin Asplin's brilliant site? - hometown(.)aol(.)co(.)uk/kevinasplin/home(.)html - remove brackets. Also the regimental websites are often a good place to start. Best of luck Maria

Chris Surviving service records will be at Kew, along with medal rolls for this period. No muster rolls for very end of 19th century and 20th century are available there.
