Military records for the former Kingdom of Hanover in Germany can include a soldier's date and place of birth, his father's name, and widow's pensions. This publication is the only English-language guide to this gold mine of information for genealogists. With this guide a researcher can quickly determine all available records for a regiment and time period and know where to find them in the microfilm of the Family History Library (FHL). Researching a Hanover ancestor is not complete without considering these military records.
