Hart's Annual Army List

Hart’s provides a list of serving regular, militia or territorial British Army officers that easily goes back into the mid 1800’s. A series of the books is available online at Google Books. They are readable online. The link below takes you to a list of the books, with the 1862 volume being the focus. This is a wonderful resource if your ancestor served in the officer ranks in the British Army.

The 1908 edition of the list is searchable at Ancestry.com. Go to the Ancestry card catalog and search on the title “Annual Army List.” The value of this particular edition is that most of the officers listed, went on to fight in WWI.
