NPGilbert Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Hi Mike A super collection of books you have there. One I don't see in your collection is the series writen by J.H. Breytenbach "Geskiedenis van die Tweede Vryheidsoorlog" or History of the Second Boer War (loosely translated). You probably don't have it because it was published in Afrikaans. It is a very handy series for reference. One favour Mike Can you please check if my great grandfarther, one Henry William Gilbert's QSA is mentioned in your book the Medal Roll of the QSA to the Brithish Navy and Marines by Spink. He served on HMS Doris and his enlistment number was 190549. Will appreciate it. Regards Norman
QSAMIKE Posted October 18, 2010 Author Posted October 18, 2010 Good Morning Norman..... This is only a small section of my books collection but I will admit since I cannot read Afrikaans I will stick to English though I will admit I do have 1 book in Afrikaans..... 190.549 Quartermaster / Signals H. W. Gilbert is on the roll and is entitled to QSA with Cape Colony Bar and KSA with usual 2 bars......... Mike

Mike Hi Mike Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Will it be possible to e-mail me a scan of the info to normanglbrt@yahoo .com. Regards Norman :cheers:
Mervyn Mitton Posted October 18, 2010 Posted October 18, 2010 Norman - under British Navy (next one down) half way down page 2 - under - British Navy First Three Months of Boer War - the first picture shows HMS Doris. A very strange name for a British warship. The crew must have spent their time fighting the crews of other ships ?
