Hi Folks, Can someone advise me of the best way to attack this problem In my Tree I have a George White, bn 1862 in Brighton and I found him in the 1881 Census at Wellington Barracks of the Coldstream Guards and would like to find his record or at least more than just the Census. Which is the best way to go at this Phil White

Hi Phil The records are at the National Archives and I suggest you look at the Research Guides from this site. http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/default.htm Ancestry.com have been releasing Military Records from Discharge Papers (WO97)and these would probably cover the period you are looking for. Please note that if a soldier dies while in service there would not be a discharge record. Also the Coldstream Guards are the 2nd Foot Guards and this is used for example by thr LDS in their catalogue.
