TOPIC:

I am researching my Great Grandad Alexander Colville Smith who was a trooper in the Royston Hore during the Natal Rebellion. I have his medal. No one in the family has any idea when he went to South Africa or when he returned to Scotland, he was back in Scotland by 1919.Are any records available of those involved in the Natal Rebellion or has anybody else any pointers as to where i might find information.

many thanks

Allen
