A few weeks ago someone very kindly gave me a PRO reference for a possible reference for my grandfather Cpl William Wainwright. Unfortunately |I succeeded in inadvertantly deleting a number of emails including that one. I would be grateful if the person concerned could let me have it again. Best wishes Robin

Robin - It might have been me but even if not I can confirm that 32481 Cpl. William Wainwright 111th (Yorkshire Dragoons) Co, Imperial Yeomanry was awarded the QSA with clasps Cape Colony, Orange Free State, Transvaal, South Africa 1901 & South Africa 1902. 32486 Trooper Smith Wainwright was in the same company and by his number must have enlisted at the same time. He got the same clasps on his medal. Service papers for both survive in series WO 128 at the PRO.
