Hi, I have just joined this forum. My grandad was in the Manchester Regiment and served in the Boer War, I have tried to find information about him but as he had a common name I have had no luck. Looking forward to being a member.

His wife was Catherine and he was born 1879.

Perhaps its best if you tell us what you know about him and also why you think he was in the Manchester Regt.
