E Buckingham Posted 27 October , 2023 Share Posted 27 October , 2023 I wondered if there are any records of female service in WW1 I can access? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolt968 Posted 27 October , 2023 Share Posted 27 October , 2023 There are some records of the Women's Auxilliary Army Corps at FindmyPast: https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-records/british-army-womens-army-auxiliary-corps-1917-1920 Also at the National Archives. https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/womens-army-auxiliary-corps-service-records-1917-1920/ (You should notice that the vast majority are missing.) I can remember where those records are as I have searched them recently (and not found the lady I was looking for). I believe the WRAF records are here but have not used them. https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-records/british-womens-royal-air-force-service-records-1918-1920 and here https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/womens-royal-air-force-service-records-1918-1920/ I believe that there are also WRNS records at the national Archives and FindmyPast. https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/womens-royal-naval-service-records-1917-1919/ https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-records/british-womens-royal-naval-service-ratings-service-registers-1918-1919 The three National Archives research guides at the bottom of this page are well worth reading https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/help-with-your-research/research-guides/?research-category=first-world-war RM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
