Hi again

That should be The Blues and Royals.

I just had a look on Ancestry for military records and there is a Francis Charles Overton, which I think may be the one you refer to. It is under British Army WW1 Records.

9177 Pte Overton. Enlisted with the Special Reserve 8 Sept 1914 Lincolnshire Regt. for the term of 1 year. He was aged 38 years and lived Mablethorpe, Lincolnshire. Usual occupation, a Porter. Question: have you ever served in the army - yes 1st Life Guards.

If you have not seen these records before I can copy them for you.

Hi

I think you will find that the Royal Horse Guards are The Blues & Royal. They are The Household Cavalry, with the Life Guards.

Hope this is of some help to you.
