Armed Forces / Re: Was he at Rorke's Drift?

He was my great grandfather and travelled all over with the army, mainly base at Colchester, Essex. He was a groom and stayed with the same major for years. Everytime he came home on leave another child was conceived and they were often named after where had been on his army jaunts. Like May Malabar, Olive Tregelia. etc. what a character.
