Hi Steve,

I hope you don't mind but a couple of interesting clues in trying to trace him down:

1. Next to Regiment it states: C in C BG Engineers (at least I think that's what it says - I could be wrong)

2. There is a Henry Green from Cape Town born circa 1872 who was a Plumber who could be a possibility:

Full Marriage Cert:


The signatures are close but I still have my doubt:

Attestation Papers:


Marriage Cert:


The Henry Green above passed away in 1917 in Benoni:


Just a thought and good luck with the research.
Speak my name so that I may live again

Hi Shaun. Apologies for the late response!
I really don't mind, I welcome all and any contribution/leads to any of my posts. Many thanks for yours.

I had seen the plumber on Family search, but like you I am not convinced.

Difficult to make out the writing on the medal roll.

It looks like Mr. Green will remain an enigma for the time being!

Cheers Steve.
