I have found this record of his service in South Africa. His number was 67 on the QSA medal roll and he was entitles to the Cape Colony clasp. I'm in the process of trying to compile surviving records of SJAB members in SA. Can I attach this photo?

Hi Jane,

My 4xgreat grandfather William Quiney was born in Preston Capes, Northamptonshire in 1802. He was recorded as a druggist in the 1841 census, an ink maker in 1842, chemist in 1851 census, druggist in 1865, wholesale druggist in 1871 census, druggist 1881 censis, drug maker 1883. He died 7 Jan 1883 and was recorded as a wholesale druggist.  In all this period he lived and worked in the Stepney, Tower Hamlets, Mile End area of London (Middlesex). I don't know when he moved from Preston Capes to London.  Anything you can find would be wonderful.

Lynne
