Michael Pegum Posted 6 January , 2008 Share Posted 6 January , 2008 Sorry if this is an old topic, but I want to find the pre-war record of a man who was invalided out of the peace-time navy and joined the R.F.C. when the war began. He was shot down in 1915. Where should I look for the records? Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

per ardua per mare per terram Posted 6 January , 2008 Share Posted 6 January , 2008 The online records go back to the 1870s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Pegum Posted 7 January , 2008 Author Share Posted 7 January , 2008 He's not there, I'm afraid. Do those records include both officers and other ranks (he was an officer)? Is there anywhere else I might look? Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

per ardua per mare per terram Posted 8 January , 2008 Share Posted 8 January , 2008 These are other ranks records, sorry I assumed that he was a rating with no other information to go on. Officers records are in ADM 196 and their careers can also be followed through the Navy List. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
