Armed Forces / Territorial Army records
« on: Saturday 18 July 09 09:58 BST (UK)  »
Does anyone have any advice for researching Territorial Army records prior to WW1? Online resources would be best as I live in Oz and a quick trip to Kew is a bit tricky.

Cheers,

Europe / Re: Gibraltar baptisms/birth certificates

G'day all,
I have a similar problem to soulsister. My 3xGreatgrandmother was Mary Lloyd and according to census data she was born some time around 1818 in Gibraltar (although in various census her birth place was also recorded as "Cibraltar",Jamaica and "On the sea").
She married Samuel Shipton in Horsley, Gloucestershire in 1837 and the marriage certificate records her Father as John Lloyd and the occupation is difficult to read but may be Soldier.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I find out who John Lloyd was? I've already tried Findmypast and the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in Gibraltar.
Cheers
