    1. Re: Unknown uniform

    3. Hi Bernie The uniform looks like the Victorian Mounted Rifles, If you know where he was living at the time it was taken it would help in identifying as the uniform is from the period 1890 to about 1905. Have you checked the nominal roll of Australians who served in the Anglo-Boer war at the Australian War memorial site? I checked our index and he was not listed as a Officer in the VMR.

I have posted a photograph on my site: http://www.cnl.com.au/users/cline/alf.htm > He seems to be wearing a uniform relating to a horse brigade, but I am unable to identify which war if any he fought (his name does not appear on any nominal roll for the period). Is anyone able to assist my research? I was also trying to find what rank he may have held. > > Bernie Cline > Email: [email protected] > > The KLEIN Family Centre The TYNDALL Family Centre > http://go.to/klein http://all.at/tyndall > > ______________________________
