I think that the obvious thing to do on the forum is merely to name your grandfather!

My grandfather, who was with the Volunteer Coy, Durham Light Infantry, was attached to various units after a period of hospitalization while he made his way back to his own unit. From 24 to 30 June 1900 he was at Volksrust attached to a unit he refers to as "I.LeY" (my best interpretation of his handwritten diary entry - it could be I.LeV). I searched extensively but can't figure it out.
