I have an old photo that was in my great grandmother's box of mementoes. It's badly faded, appears to be pre-Victorian infantry (single-breasted, stand collar, white belt, forage cap with central badge (unreadable), bright not black buttons, dark trousers. One of my ggm's brothers was Charles Edwin Reynolds born 1870. I'm looking for WO 126/144, his attestation page. Are there online images or transcriptions available? He would have served any time between 1888 and 1901, he left at his own request 10 Mar 1901 (WO127). He was buried June 1901 in Waltham Forest cemetery.

Hello,

According to Thorneycroft "Unbuttoned" by Robin Droogleever he was a Corporal, served in A Company from 20/10/99 to 10/3/01 and earned the QSA with 7 clasps and was from Pietermaritzburg, Natal.
