Risdale
« on: Friday 13 July 07 13:16 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find out some more information about a William Risdale.
All I know about him is that he trained as a vet in York Barracks. He was serving as a vet in the 21st lancers at Dublin Barracks where his son William Edward was born in 1887. William Edward married Lilian Agnes Bowskill in 1918 in Mansfield, Notts.
Does anyone out there know how and from where I can find out any more information about him and his army career?
Thankyou.

You and me both, even when I visited there I found is very confusing, but I do belive its the only place to find out the information that you want.

Sorry I cant be of more help.

Thank you anyway, maybe some kind soul out there can let us in on the secret of how to use it properly.
