Hi everyone Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Mike for sending the maps of Radcliffe - thank you Mike :O) I am digressing a little bit as my Uncle has asked me to help him locate his Grandfather. According to his army records he fought in the Boar war and was in a battle there in 1900. We can't locate him on the 1901 census so I am presuming he would still be in South Africa. Would that be a good presumption? He was born in Sept 1871 and I think I have found him in the Union Workhouse with his 2 sisters in 1881. If workhouse records still survive what information do they show please? Thank you for any help, best wishes Vanda __________________________________________________________ Free games for all the family - http://www.tiscali.co.uk/play __________________________________________________________
