William HEMMINGS in The Royal Norfolks, fought in Boer War
« on: Friday 10 February 06 11:22 GMT (UK) »
Hi, Everyone,
I must plead extreme ignorance of this section of Rootschat - in spite of all my previous posts, I don't think I've tried it here before, so do not know my way around.  It's just that I need to discover something about a William HEMMINGS who apparently was in The Royal Norfolks, and fought in The Boer War.
He MAY have been an officer, but not entirely sure.
Could some kind person point me in some kind of correct direction to begin my search for him...
very best wishes,
keith
