« on: Wednesday 11 February 15 00:21 GMT (UK) »
Hi Ian.
Hoping you are able to help with info on my G.Grandfather James Pratten (b. abt 1869) from Bradford on Avon, who served with the 2nd Wiltshire Regiment. A Wiltshire times newspaper article in April 1944 relating to their Golden wedding anniversary. stated he was a member of the Regular Army firstly serving in India then at the outbreak of Boer War was sent to Africa serving under General Clements.
I notice that you have been writing a book & hope that it is now on the shelves.
Regards
Rick
