110,000+ Royal Marine Service Records 1842 – 1936 are now available online at The National Archives web site. You no longer need to know the division the Marine was in as this data set can be search by surname, forename, register number or enrolment date.

I have been trying to reach the RM Records Office to obtain my Service Certificate [copy]. The only telephone number I can find is non-functioning.
Can you help please?
