Hi Deborah, My grandmother first husband died in the Boar War, I found www.Lib.Sun.ac.ZA/roh/roh.exe holds the roll of all British men who died in the Boar War, it might be a start, also as previous message said try a google search. happy hunting.......Lilly

Deborah Not sure which records you are hoping to find, but if you want military records you will probably need to know which regiment. You can try searching the National Archives here: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/militaryhistory/ or google Boer War for sites which may help. nell
