Death in Germinston, South Africa 1895
« on: Thursday 04 March 10 11:08 GMT (UK) »
Can anybody help me with someone who died in Germinston, South Africa in 1895.

On Libindx it says he was in the 1st Cameron Highlanders and he died 22.11.1895.  His name is George A. Rose.

There is a newspaper entry, which I think is just a death notice, but I have not requested a copy of it yet.

Anything more that can be found would be a bonus.

Thanks

Betty

Thanks for the information you have given me which is great.

Can anybody access this information.

I tried on the SA Archives but did not get very far.  If I can access it can you give me some advise as to how.

Thanks again for your time.
