Hi Kevin

I have viewed your page with interest. I have just received my
grandfathers military history record, and wondered if you could suggest
a few avenues of research.?

He joined at 18 years the Manchester Regiment in October 1888,-- in
September 1891- his record says India, where he stayed for 4 years. Then
Home? for 3 years, then South Africa for 2 years.=30 September 1901. 13
years in all.

I don't know how to check where in India he would be, and where in the
Uk for that matter, he was in the 1st Batt.

Can you advise?

Thanks
