===Army Lists===
''Army List''s are useful if you are researching an officer. There were Monthly, Quarterly and Annual editions published. At least during the [[First World War]], only the Monthly Lists cover the officers in “battalion order”.<ref> rflory [https://www.greatwarforum.org/topic/228278-army-list-copies-at-kew/?do=findComment&comment=2267381 Army List - copies at Kew?] ''Great War Forum'' 28 May 2015. Retrieved 22 May 2018.</ref> ''Quarterly Army List''s only list regular, career officers and not others such as temporary officers and territorial officers who are to be found in the ''Monthly Army List''s.<ref>rflory.

Retrieved 22 May 2018.</ref> The Monthly Lists are available on the open shelves at the National Archives and major libraries, and some have now been digitised.
Some ''List''s were official, published by the War Office, while others were commercial publications.
