Andy,

I took the liberty of inserting the picture in your post. Hope that's OK.

Another option if you are in the UK is to visit the National Archives in London where you can access the records for free.

Smashing picture Andy, thanks for sharing. No photographer's name?

Andy
Findmypast have 4 pages of service papers for your man from 1900-1912. These will be the same as the papers you have referenced in Fold3. I can copy and email them to you. Show service in India for 9 years or so. Pete

Hi Pete, fantastic! That would be great if you could email me what you have.

Many thanks, Andy

Thanks Meurig.

I've attached a pic of the back of the photo. Not an obvious name there but at the bottom in very small print it says 'Bernh Wachtl Vienne' which I understand refers to Bernhardt Wachtl of Vienna who were well-known lithographers at end of 19th century. I've also attached a close up of the red seal at the bottom of the pic. It has motifs, not words. Not sure if this tells us anything.

Regards, Andy
