TOPIC:

My grandfather served in the 74th (Dublin) Company of the Imperial Yeomanry in the Anglo- Boer war. I am trying to trace his medal group, which consists of the QSA and from World War 1 the British War Medal, Victory Medal and Distinguished Service Medal. His name is G C Waldron and his Boer War service number was 15213 (his World war 1 service number in the Royal navy was 270532). I am anxious to try and buy back these medals and i will pay a finder's fee of £100 to anybody who can locate the current owner of these. Thank you so much to anybody who reads this post and can help me.

I think you are the second person in under a fortnight with a similar request regarding family medals which include service in the famous 74th Imperial Yeomanry, I see George Waldron was actually a Dubliner too, I hope his medals remain all extant and you are able to acquire them in due course,

Thank you for your best wishes.

fseville,

Let's hope these turn up at some point.

A DSM with a QSA is very unusual so the group will definitely be features here should it appear.

Best wishes
David
