Military Band of the Hampshire Regt

A Military Band is conducted by a Bandmaster and attached to an army unit.

Members of the Viceroy's Band

These were generally seconded from British Army Units. If an ancestor is shown on a record as being in the Viceroy's Band then one should look for him on the Unattached List for that year. Here, besides his name and former regiment , will be found his enlistment details, physical description and other personal information.

Two photographs of band members are available [1]
