Just wondering if anyone near this museum and could do a quick bit of research for me as I live abroad, expenses paid of course. Not sure if there will be what I am looking for though!
Hi, Have you tried contacting the museum with your enquiry? http://www.thegurkhamuseum.co.uk/ What are the details you are looking for?
I don't really know what info museums like this have, but it is about a particular officer in a particular year. They are certain to have something about him, but I am looking for something a bit more personal and possibly not official. If anyone has access I could pm them with more detail. Thanks. But yes I will try through their email.
I've emailed them on 3 occasions over the past 5/6 years or so. They have always answered my enquiries, normally suggesting whether they have the information I was looking for or not and then suggesting a visit in my case. I simply have never gotten around to going. I think they are far better set up now in regard to research online and copying material for customers, so it is worth asking.
