2023 Pte H Bowman
I have a Queens Medal with 5 bars SA 1902, SA 1901, Transvaal, Orange Free State and Cape Colony. When my grandfather, also H Bowman, died we found this medal in his belongings. My granfather born in 1895 was injured in WWI, Royal Irish Rifles. I am trying to find information about where H Bowman came from etc. Is this information available on line?

2023 Pte Hugh Bowman served with C Coy, 3rd Batallion Railway Pioneers 8/1/1901-30/6/1902. He may have served with another unit proir to that

beggasandbel - thank you for the information.Another couple of snippets to try and find more information on. Can you divulge where you get this information from as I have been searching the websites for some time but cannot find any information to confirm that he is related to me in some way. Thanks again.

Hello David,

I know that your first message on H. Bowman was a year and a half ago, but I was just wondering if you were still interested in Hugh Bowman.

I have finished transcribing the RPR and have a copy of his enrolment form if you would like a copy.

Regards, Malcolm
