Title: Travel to France
Post by: snimmo243 on Monday 05 January 26 21:04 GMT (UK): Currently researching my GGrandmother and have been told she went to france at some point in the 1920s whilst in service. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can find information about possible routes from Scotland (assume it would be by ship)
Thanks
Steven
