Records
Note that if a record is available both in the [[Church records]] and in the [[General Register Office]] records, the latter may contain more information, at least for some time periods. By way of example, in 1903 the additional information available for a marriage record was the nationalities of the groom and bride, and the occupations of the fathers of the groom and bride.

:Note 2021/05/11. The database appears to contain men who were not in the British Army. A card was seen for a claim by the widow, living in South Africa, of John Henry Doyle, No 1372, Gunner 2nd Rhodesian Regiment, died in South Africa, after discharge.
