I am seeking advice from this list please, trying to track down Herbert LEWIS of Croydon, b 1866. This man is missing from the 1901 census in England, yet his wife and children are all living in Croydon with his father and sisters. His wife dies later in May 1901 and, from the informant names etc. given on death certificate so he was possibly still not about in England. I am trying to establish where he might have been; one thought was in South Africa at the war. Given his age he was 'getting on' but may have been an officer as he was very prominent in business life in the City. I have searched the net trying to find any enlistment roll listings, with no success. Here in NZ we have rolls which I could use but searches in our library here in Auckland have not yielded any clue about how I could possibly eliminate or place him in/from the war. Any suggestions welcome. By way of return, I have the enrolment lists of NZer's who served in the Great War and can do look-ups for the list. Michael New Zealand
