Biographies

It is intended, over time, to add biographies of individual soldiers of the 9th King's to this website. Each soldier will have his own page and I hope to include as much information about each soldier as possible.

If you have a relative who served in the 9th King's and you would like to see his story published, send me his details via e-mail. If you have any photographs, documents, letters, etc. to add to his biography I can include them. Click on the postbox below to send me an e-mail or Click Here.
