Hi Everyone,
In my haste I think I may have posted in the wrong section, my apologies.
Looking for my husbands' grandfather's WW1 service records.
William Porter Edwards b 21 Dec 1894
Royal Warwickshire Reg
Reg no. 266721 Cpl.
He returned from service.
I fear his records may have been lost in WW11 as the few sites I've been on show no sign of anyone from the Royal Warwicks.
Thanks for any help.

I find the WW1 forum has unbelievable WW1 Genies/Experts on Rootschat

If they can't find anything for you then its not there.
