Help needed please
« on: Wednesday 20 February 13 19:41 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone ,

I would like to know how to get hold of my great uncles military records .  I am tracing my family tree and my aunty doesn't have any info on how or where here brother died . I have found a picture of his grave but , she would love to have more info on what happened to him . My grandmother had this info but took it to her grave .

So I am trying to find the records for a verdun Thomas Williams a "royal marine" of brynmawr ,wales who is buried in the Berlin 1939-1945 cemetery . He is remembered on the memorial in the town .

Is there any information online ..????? Or where can I get the records from .....if possible


Many thanks

Rob

Hi Rob

This is where you need to go as his records are probably still with MOD
