Fire service records
« on: Tuesday 13 August 13 21:57 BST (UK) »
I am trying to find information about my father in law who was in the fire service in WW11, think he probably started in the AFS and served in Warrington and I think Liverpool which was more severely hit. His name was James (Jimmy) Wright, there does not seem to be many records to look at for personnel information any help would be welcome.

I have no experience of research in this area, but this looks like a useful starting point:
