                                       Service Records for France Family Members

I am trying to gather as many records for the France family and the husbands to the female France's also. This will be a work in progress as I look for the husbands of the women of our family. Ancestry. com has quit a few records to sift through and where ever else I can find them. As with all the other information I've collected if you see something that looks incorrect let me know so I can fix it.
