The following resources contain military listings from the Revolutionary War through to World War 1. Due to the nature and rarity of these materials they can only be used in the library. Visit the Reference & Information Services Department at the Victoria Avenue location. These items cannot be borrowed through the InterLibrary Loan system.

Military records, especially military pension records, can be an excellent place to find genealogical information. Through them, you can often find information such as birthplace, age at enlistment, occupation, and names of immediate family members.
