:[[Findmypast]], pay website, includes a database "Rifle Brigade Chronicle 1890-1920",<ref>[https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/rifle-brigade-chronicle-1890-1920 Rifle Brigade Chronicle 1890-1920] findmypast</ref> located in Armed Forces & Conflict/Regimental & Service Records, with a complete run of editions. This database is searchable, (by name or keyword) with the search result showing a page of the Chronicle (and if required adjoining pages). It is possible browse the various editions, although it is a slow process. From the findmypast page, click on Search (leaving all details blank} This will bring up a long list of all pages (call it page A). Locate page 1 for the volume you require, (open a new window is suggested, call it page B) then scroll from there, or return to the original page (page A) if you have found a reference to a particular page you now require. If you need to increase the size of the pages in order to read them you may need to download (3rd or 4th icons at the bottom of each page, run your mouse over the bottom of the page if they are not visible) but this must be done page by page.
