Post by: BettyBoops on Friday 08 May 20 10:32 BST (UK)

G'day, is someone able to either seek out, or guide me to the site, an army record for -

Robert Henry Seale - 37837 - Royal Field Artillery - Allahabad (India) - 26/July/1905

Many, many thanks for your time,
Betty

I'm not seeing anything re WW1 service.
His record is on Ancestry Fold3 which is free to use at the moment.
I'm just going over it.

His Army papers on FindMyPast cover his service from 1905 until discharge in 1907:

It's the same as the Fold 3 records.

There's a WW1 MIC and medal roll listings for RFA Gunner Robert H Seale 3462 but his file seems not to have survived.

Thank you both. They do reflect what I have to date, but was hoping that there was some details on where he fought and injuries incurred. :) Thank you once again for your time. Betty
