→Locating a regiment
===Locating a regiment===
There are many ways to find out locations at which a regiment was stationed. More labourious methods include tracking through the muster rolls, army lists or station lists published in newspapers. Many of our regiment articles include a timeline of major stations.
*The archived website Regiments.org provides information about regimental deployments, which can range from general to specific. See [[British Army#Other 2|External Links - Other, below]]. Additionally individual Fibiwiki regimental pages generally include links to relevant regimental pages from Regiments.org.
*One online source providing incomplete but highly useful information, is:
