Find Ancestors

Hi i have a copy of my great grandads signing up paper. He joined the 3rd Leicestershire regiment on the 20th November 1890,,No 758D,,I have tried all ways to find any info using this but no luck,,Can anybody help me please,,Chris x

Did he name a next of kin on his papers?

As he is your grt grandad then when did he marry? The cert should name his father .if known

His papers on FMP show he was aged 17years 11 months and single. No next of kin named. Address Harrington Streeet, Leicester.

No he didn't,,I have quite a bit of family history,,What i would like is his military history but i can't find any,,I know he was in Pembroke in 1901 in an army barracks listed as Gunner Artillery Regiment.He married my great grandma in 1893,,Some of his children were born in Jamaica and Nova Scotia.

Could be him based in Shorncliffe Camp Folkestone Kent says born in London Canada

Was he still a gunner when he married ?

his marriage certificate should give his father's name - if you haven't got it, that might be the next step

His father is William Edmund Bryan,Born 1842 Stoney stanton,,Thanks Choccy and Shirley x x
