Irene Schaffer, a Tasmanian historical writer, has asked me if I can find out anything about the White Horse Inn which was in Strand Street at the time of the Boer War. Her present research subject was a member of Kitchener's Bodyguard and > apparently stayed there before taking part in action, and later recuperating from wounds. If anyone can point me to good research sites I would be very grateful. Thank you, Ivy Trott. -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

Hello Ivy Do you have any idea what the subjects name is ? Street Directories such as Juta's etc would list hotels and inns and their proprietors and perhaps if you a are lucky an advertisement for the establishment. kind regards Heather Visit South Africa's premier Genealogy + Family History Web sites : www.familytree.co.za <http://www.familytree.co.za> + www.ancestry.mweb.co.za <http://www.ancestry.mweb.co.za> -----Original Message----- From: Ivy Trott [mailto:ivytrott@telkomsa.net] Sent: 27 February 2005 02:53 PM To: SOUTH-AFRICA-CAPE-TOWN-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [South-Africa-Cape-Town] White Horse Inn Irene Schaffer, a Tasmanian historical writer, has asked me if I can find out anything about the White Horse Inn which was in Strand Street at the time of the Boer War.
