Link: Boer War - Links

[izabel]

Hi everyone.  I am getting to all the queries - have been really busy at work since the new year.

Two more sites that may help in your quest

http//abw.netfirms.com/ whatwas.htm  link broken

This site has a good account of what it was like for the british solider in the boer war and a lot of interesting links

http //www.justdone. co.za/ROH link broken

The SA Roll of Hounour lists is quite comprehenisve so if you think your relative died in the war this is the place to start

Please bear with me, Izabel

A relatively new database of British/Imperial/Colonial troops in the Boer War.

It's early days for the site, and a lot of entries don't have a whole lot of detail just yet, but I hope it takes off.
