Title: WILLIAM WALKER - STAFF SERGEANT ARMY HOSPITAL CORPS
Post by: bhunter on Wednesday 07 June 17 20:44 BST (UK)

Where would I find the army records of William WALKER, Staff Sergeant Army Hospital Corps?  This is his occupation in 1881 at Sandhurst, Berkshire, England.

His occupation on his daughter's birth 31 Dec 1879 Fermoy, Cork, Ireland is Staff Sergeant Army Hospital Corps and on his son's birth 13 Apr 1878 Buttevant, Cork, Ireland is Corporal Army Hospital Corps. Eldest son William was born 1876 in Netley, Hampshire and the youngest two daughters were born in Berkshire.

Thanks
B

Findmypast has service records for this time frame however there are many William Walkers and just a quick search hasn't turned up one in the Hospital Corps as yet.
As background to help others in the search - William Walker born 1849 Kent died 1888. Wife Agnes went on to marry Joseph Paine.
