Information needed on a royal marine
in circles
Please can anyone help me find out more about a royal marine?
Who can I ask for more information on him?His name was John Thomas HOBBS
he was a Captain of the Royal Marines and died around 1826.
Pointers would be most appreciated.Thank you

Hi

Had your man been an 'ordinary ranks' then there is a good chance his papers would be available to download, online. However, as an Officer it looks as if you are in for a bit of a hunt.

All I can suggest is that you read the research guide from the National Archives.
