I have my Grandfather's attestation paper which reads: Canadian over-seas expeditionary force 9880 Sept 22nd 1914. William Alderton.Born 1881 I heard from a family member that he was a POW but cannot find out any info. As I live in California I am finding it a little difficult to find where to go. William was married to Edith Brown. I am interested to find out about his military record.

Hello Janet and welcome to the forum.
I am going to move this thread to the Military area, you may find you receive more help there.
Problems navigating Brit-Gen is for when you get lost in the British Genealogy forum. But don't worry, if you do get lost we can send someone to find you. We are quite good at tracking people on here.
Good Luck
