I wonder if anyone knows what kind of information the records hold. I came across name that I think might be an ancestor, James Gleeson from ireland. I cannot find on the 1901 or 1911 census,living with his wife, so he might be in the army already. I have found the record on Nat archives site but have to pay, before I do I was wondering if it would have any reference to his wife. On the war graves commission the grave is in Kirkee in India and names his parents, but not mentioning his wife. the fathers name James Gleeson, is right but i don't know his mothers name.I want to make sure I have the right person first. Any help thanks Julie
