I need a contact address so I can write to the records department of the Argyl and Sutherland Highlanders. To allow me to go beyond my paternal grandfather I need to know what name he used when he enlisted in the regiment c1890. Kathlyn |

Hello Debbie. Go to your two messages and delete one. LOL Keith Kathlyn. Your best bet is to get his Records from Kew. That will give you a lot of background info - is he Scots. Scotlands people will then be the place to go. Good Luck Keith |
