Hello,
Thanks to the administrators for allowing me to join this Forum.
My family have had very little information passed down about my great grandfather, George Atkins. What we know is that he served in the Irish Rifles Regiment and was at the rank of sergeant when my grandfather was born in Deolali Camp, India, in 1896. We think his father died a few years later in the Boer War, though this has never been confirmed.
I hope to be able to find some more details about my ancestor through this Forum.
Bob
