I am trying to track down an ancestor who I believe was serving overseas at the time of the Boer War in 1901. He disappears from the Census in that year and cannot be found living anywhere in the UK.. This would correspond with the memories of my grandmother but unfortunately she could never remember when he served, where or which regiment. If he was out of the country it is highly likely that he was in South Africa. Do you know of any easily accessible records that I can use to find out whether he enlisted for the Boer War? He would have been about 30 in 1901, was this too old? He lived in Nottingham at the time - is it likely he would have joined a local infantry regiment? Thanks in advance, Kevin
