These records are from the Army Pension Claims records for the period 1914-1920 (WO 364/1247),
which are to be found in the National Archives at Kew. You will find here only those soldiers who were disabled due to Army service or had completed a long service and not all claims were successful. It is also worth mentioning that a few of these soldiers were career soldiers who had enlisted long before the outbreak of WW1.
The amount of information contained in these records varies. but could contain, age, place of birth, home address, trade, enlistment date, next of kin, dependants, a description and service record, including regiment or unit, plus the nature of any disability. I have copies of all the existing records, so please contact me if you require details.
