During late December 2024 and January 2025 I have carried out a great deal of work on restructuring the site, moving it towards a more thematic structure. It should prove to be friendlier for family historians, in particular, making it easier to find and understand records, to find details of units and regiments, and generally develop a better understanding of a man’s story.

I have begun with the artillery. To make it all work the way I wanted has meant not only creation of a new structure and pages, but the addition of much technical and historical material. Enjoy!
Researching the men of the Royal Horse Artillery
Researching the men of the Royal Field Artillery
Researching the men of the Royal Garrison Artillery
If this works out and people show that they like it, I will move on to restructuring other branches of the army.
Eventually, this themed structure will take over from the more functional “soldiers – army – battles” structure around which I have presented the information up until now.
