Title: 'The Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes'
Post by: arranquest on Friday 25 January 13 15:12 GMT (UK)

Hi, hope that someone can help. My Great Grandfather Frank Besant was in this order in Pembroke Dock, in fact they paid for his funeral. Just wondering (and hoping) that may some records around to give me a little more detail regarding this gentleman's life.
 Regards, arranquest

Many Thanks KGarrad,

I've looked at these sites, they were a great help in giving an historical account.

There is another posting on Rootschat  where someone offers to "lookup", and I have asked (giving more details about my Great Grandfather) if they could possibly find anything about the "Buffs" in Pembroke Dock and members there.

Kindest Regards, arranquest
