Military records of the British Army, 1914-1920 (surnames T)

Poznámky

These records are the military files of soldiers who were discharged from the British Army from 1914 to 1920. The soldier may have been in the Army for many years before his discharge. Includes enlistment papers, records of service, medical records and correspondence.

These records are referred to as the "Burnt Documents". About 70 per cent of these records were destroyed during the Blitz in World War II. Many of the remaining records were badly damaged, but most can be read. Many documents are filed out of order. Stray documents often appear in the middle of totally unrelated files.

These records are still being filmed. The projected completion date is sometime in 2001. To speed inputting of the records, the collection has been divided into separate catalog entries by letters of the alphabet. Surnames beginning with letters which are not included, have not yet been filmed or cataloged..
