Help Tracing my Granfather's Royal Engineers' Service Record

Help Tracing my Granfather's Royal Engineers' Service Record

Not having known much about my grandparents, and having recently lost my father, I have set out trying to trace my lineage. I have received a copy of my Grandparents' marriage certificate which shows my Grandfather was a Sapper in the Royal Engineers. It also shows the number 1876750 - I am not sure if this is his service number, or whether this number relates to a regiment.

He was 21 when he married my Grandmother in December 1945, and resided in Whitehaven Cumbria.

Any help anyone can offer me wou,d be gratefully accepted.

Many thanks.

Amanda
