==Records==
[[findmypast]] introduced, in March 2017, the database "Anglo-Boer War Records 1899-1902"<ref>[http://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/anglo-boer-war-records-1899-1902 Anglo-Boer War Records 1899-1902] findmypast</ref>, located in Military, Armed Forces & Conflict/Boer Wars. Elsewhere, this was stated to include a register compiled by military researcher Meurig Jones over a period of 25 years. All the records appear to be transcripts, without images, from a variety of sources, including medal rolls from The National Archives, Kew in the series W0 100. Also see [[Medal Rolls]]. Medal Rolls are also available as free downloads from TNA , and from the pay website Ancestry.
