France, Military Conscripts of Seine

801,492 기록

This collection contains registers of soldiers conscripted in the former French department of Seine encapsulating the city of Paris and its immediate suburbs, between the years of 1887 and 1921. Each record includes the soldier's first and last name, birth date, registration number, and recruitment office. Additional information can be found on the included images of the registers such as the soldier's place of birth, places of residence, parents' names, spouse's name, military accomplishments, and physical characteristics (height, eye color, hair color, etc.) A period of 3 years' military service was obligatory for most young men as needed from 1889 to 1920. The required enlistment period was reduced to 12 months in 1920. These records are an excellent resource for tracing the lives of young men in France throughout conscription and provide a glimpse into the lives of soldiers into World War I. This collection was added following MyHeritage's acquisition of Filae.
