Guest A. Booth Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 I have the medal rolls for the QSA and the KSA for the Coldstream Guards and the K.O.S.B. and am willing to do some look ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraemeR Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Talk about co-incidence.I picked up a 14/15 Star some time ago and have only started to research it in the last few days. The Star is to 6348 Pte P O'Neil KOSB. The CWGC website lists him as KIA Gallipoli 10 June 1915.It also states that he fought in the South Africa Campaign. By this I take it to mean the Boer War.It would be most appreciated if you could check your KOSB roll for me.Thanks very much.Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraemeR Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Thanks.I have since found out from another source that a QSA for a P O'Neil was sold on e-bay a couple of years ago. So it is still out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
