Born in Ireland in 1880 he ran away to join the British Army and fought in the 2nd Boer War. He was underage and an uncle possibly a Jennings travelled from India to S. Africa and took him back to India where he joined the Indian Army (possibly cavalry as he used to break in horses). He was based in the NW frontier (at one time in Rawlapindi) and fought the Pathans. He changed his name to Jennings - I do not know what his original name was. Does anyone know anything about him or any other Jennings in the Indian Army who could have been his relations. He married Amy King and had 2 children Brian and Bertram Jennings. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
