If you can't get to Kew then you will need a friend or a researcher.

Hi Meurig, thanks for your message. Unable to go anywhere as I am partly disabled, heart kept functioning by an electronmic support (Hopefully) must not have shocks or surprises. Live mostly at home now, 83 years old. PC and family research helps me stay sane. again thanks, hopefully I will discover his Yeomanry details, I have been brought a Library book Glamorgan Its Gentleman & Yeomanry 1797 to 1980, and his name is listed in there as in this Regiment, but no other details, someone has given me his Army No. as 9926. Thank you for your interest, Norman
