Help with info on Great Grandfather in British Army

Post by Jag »

Hi I'm trying to find out about my Great Grandfather who was Irish but was a career soldier in the British Army until he retired aged 55 in the early 1900's.
His name was Dennis O'Neill & he served a long time in India.
I know it's going to be difficult with so little info but could anyone tell me where to begin searching?
Thank you

Do you know what regiment?Any chance you have his Army number?
In the early 1900's Britain was busy getting out of India,so if you can find a phot in uniform post it here might wake some of the older among us from the afternoon snooze

You can apply for his Military records, not sure how you do it though. Try a search on here and you may get some pointers.

Good luck
