Boer War - civilian staff with 3rd Highland Brigade
« on: Wednesday 04 May 22 05:30 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

I am trying to locate Sidney/Sydney Wire who claimed to be an interpreter with Maj-Gen Wauchope and the 3rd Highland Brigade at Belmont, Graspan, Modder River and Magersfontein.

To the best of my knowledge he was not an enlisted man but a civilian under hire.

I have looked at all the regular Boer War sites but they deal only with enlisted personnel so I don't know where else to look.
