Absalom Darby, 2nd Worcesters

Postby peter » Wed Feb 27, 2013 9:12 pm

Cpl. 7872 Absalom Hobbs Darby 2nd Bn. Worcestershire Regiment born March Q. 1886 Tipton. I have Ancestry but his service records are not available on this site and I have only his MIC and various census records. His parents were Thomas and Mary Ann Darby and I believe Find my Past have some records for his Militia Service. If any kind member can supply these (or any details) it would be much appreciated.

Regards

Peter
