In the records there is correspondence and evidence relating to the Division transferring to the Prince of Wales Corps. “Registered as No. 62 Division, Prince of Wales’s Corps as from 27 March 1912, having been transferred on that date from No. VIII District”. Thereafter the records show the Division as part of the No. I Metropolitan Corps and Prince of Wales Corp.

The file contains Divisional forms including Brigade Record Sheets (BF2) and Brigade Register and Record Sheets/Annual Returns (BF1A) created to collect and contain information on Brigade members. The forms generally include a membership number, date of enrolment, name, rank, address, profession, whether or not the individual is a uniformed member, service badges obtained, statistics of drills, public duty events, parades and inspections attended, examination, efficiency status, special reserves status including Voluntary Aid Detachments, date of leaving and the signature of the member. There is also a section for general remarks including resignations, deaths.

Note these records are limited in information as there are only four Annual Returns. Also in the records is a BF. 3 (Returns of Drills and Duties) dated 25 April, 1911.

Please note these records are categorized using St John Ambulance Brigade form numbers (e.g. BF1, BF2).
