Dearman

[CllrP]

My great grandmother was Isabella Christina Dearman, born around 1885 in, I believe, Ireland.

The only thing I know about her family is from her marriage certificate. Here father is listed as Frederick Dearman, Sergeant Major, Dublin Fusiliers.

Can anyone direct me to where I can find any information on him? If nothing else I would like to confirm where my great grandmother was born.

Hi there,

The Royal Dublin Fusiliers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Dublin_Fusiliers) was an Irish Infantry Regiment of the British Army, established in 1881 and disbanded in 1922.

If you click on the link and scroll to the bottom, there are a couple of further links to the Association website as well as one dedicated to their memory.

Also, have a read of the stickies that Geoffers has posted at the top of the Military - Army forum (http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=444). They should provide some help in tracing Frederick's service record. ;)
