A bit obscure perhaps, but can anyone come up with anything on his ABW service?

FUNERAL OF AN EX-SOLDIER. - At Llaneugrad Parish Church, the remains of the late Colour-Sergeant A. Bloom Roberts were laid to rest on Tuesday afternoon, the Rev. J. L. Davies, rector, officiating. Sergeant Roberts, who was 43 years of age, had served nearly 20 years in the Army. He went through the Boer war, and was stationed for a long period in India and Burmah. In the latter country he contracted sunstroke, from the effects of which he never wholly recovered. He leaves a widow and three children.
(North Wales Chronicle, 18th May 1917)

The family's home address was Preswylfa, Llanallgo.
