Staffordshire Rifle Volunteers
I am researching an individual who worked at the Talke On The Hill colliery. This was situated about a mile from Hardcastle station in Staffordshire.
He is recorded as being a member of the North Staffordshire Volunteers sometime before 1904. I assume this would be Rifle Volunteers. Can any Forum member narrow down the likely battalion he served with, or the unit that would have been closest to the colliery? All suggestions greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Malcolm. |
