Armed Forces / Re: A photo of my great grandfather in uniform, but which?

Dear John915,
A quick look at Wikipedia shows the The Middlesex Regt's badge, with MIDDLESEX REGT. below. It looks like something like the left hand collar badge on my grandfather's uniform.
That's really helpful, thanks.
Wikipedia is lighten detail. Do you know of any archive/book/internet resource that would describe their movement in the Boar War? I've tried, for instance,
http://www.regiments.org/regiments/uk/inf/057Midx.htm (Page not found)
http://www.prole.demon.co.uk/middlesex/index.htm (Page not found)
http://www.stephen-stratford.co.uk/middx_roh.htm (WWII and after)
etc
Thanks for any additional help you can give!
Best wishes, Jon
