Hi all, as you can see I am new to the site. I have been tracing my family tree for a while now but have hit a brick wall with the Holland side of my family. My G Grandad was George Holland who was a Major in the Blues and Royals early 1900s, His wife was Mary Holland and she had 3 children, on the 1901 census she was living in the Guinness Trust Buildings in Chelsea block F, does anyone know if these buildings still exist and is there anyway I can find out where George Holland was at this time? Please I hope someone can help.|banghead| Jeni

A couple of thoughts, have you tried either:

1. His service record?

2. The Army List?

3. Anything useful on the regiments web-site http://www.regiments.org/regiments/index.htm

4. Can the Regimental museum assist?
