I am searching for records relating to my great grandparents, the parents of my grandfather Arthur Garrett. with the hope of knowing their identity (i.e. names). According to his Seamen’s Service Register (Catalogue reference) ADM 188/174, Arthur Garrett was born in Paddington on 5 January 1868. The 1871 and 1881 census records show his "Estimated Birth" as 1869

The Metropolitan Asylum Board – Admission & Discharge Register (Exmouth) - shows that at the age of 13 years Arthur Garrett was a cadet on the Training Ship Exmouth. He was “Admitted” 5 January 1881 and “Discharged” on 4 December 1884, his “Destination” being HMS Kingfisher. Further “Relevant Entries” relating to Arthur Garret were his “Number on S.B.” as 1381; “Number on W.H.” as 127; and his “Union” as Paddington.

Can some body inform me of how I may obtain this information which shows his parents' details.

Harry Garrett
