I have just found my ancestor William John Randall was a private in the Oxfordshire Light Infantry - 43rd & 52nd Light Infantry. Joined in 1883, Soldier number 1112

What else can I find out & where do I start? National Archives? Or are there better places to search? I am doing this from overseas so I can't physically go to some of the records places,

Thanks - Clare
