Title:
Registers of Recruits
Scope & Content:
The registers contain the following details (or a selection of them) for each recruit: name, age, height, colour of hair and eyes, type of complexion, shape of face, place of birth, by whom and where enlisted, date of enlistment and attestation, date of joining the depot and of final approval, period of service, previous occupation, marital status, date and ship of embarkation, Presidency, Corps, and remarks. They represent the returns made by the district recruiting officers and, apart from L/MIL/9/12, entries are confined to artillery and infantry recruits. The arrangement is roughly chronological, and it clearly shows the batches brought in by the various recruiting sergeants. There are no indexes.
