« on: Friday 20 December 13 23:02 GMT (UK) »
I am researching 2576 Henry Hale (my great great grandfather) he joined 2nd batt wilts regt 06/07/1889 and served in india, burma and south Africa earning QSA cape colony clasp and KSA with bar and clasps 1901-1902. I believe he completed 21 years service and received a chelsea pension as an out pensioner I assume. Would really like any photographs, accounts or diaries, newspaper articles etc that might give me any more info on him. Also would like to know what company he was in and if he was involved in the rensburg disaster orange river?
