On this British Army Ancestors website you will find over 12m records which have been collated from many sources.

The avatars on this site are intended as a guide for you and represent the British soldier throughout history. For example, if the red-jacketed soldier appears in your search results, this is an indication that this man probably served between 1850 and 1902.

I RESEARCH SOLDIERS
In 2008 I launched my Army Service Numbers 1881-1918 blog and over the years I have helped hundreds (if not thousands) of military and family historians. I also carry out research. Drop me a line if you need help.
NOTE There is also a RESEARCH button against every returned result on this site. Click on this button to find out more about research services for individual soldiers.
There are currently 103506 photos of British Army soldiers published on this website
