WJBates Posted 16 November , 2004 Author Share Posted 16 November , 2004 L: Thank you, look forward to an opportunity to share info and gain a Woolwich map. My family was Artillery as one could imagine for Woolwich. Two generations from Woolwich, service 1857 to 1905 in RHE, and various batteries in New Zealand, Natal and India and the Woolwich Reserve Army. Brief summary to follow up on with interesting supporting documentation. Ooops, just realized this is pre war content.....I am looking for their descendents who served in WW1, just can't find them yet. regards jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJBates Posted 16 November , 2004 Author Share Posted 16 November , 2004 Roop: Thank you for the response, I think the map involved is from 1870, do you think ? jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
