7th Royal Scots Territorials - George Walker
I have a photo of a group of military men taken before 1913 presumably in Scotland.
I have been able to identify the soldier on the far left, kneeling at the front, as George WALKER. George was born in 1889 (see transcription of birth extract below) and migrated to Australia in March 1913 and married Louisa LOVELL in July 1913.
The notation on the back of the photo reads 7th Royal Scots Territorials.
How can I find out more information on his participation in the Royal Scots, is there anywhere I can access records and if so how?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks Sandra
