Hi Tony

Unfortunately, I don't have access to UK military or other records.

A quick 'name search' on this website, though ( www.angloboerwar.com/?option=com_content&view=article&id=2318 ), brings up one 7217 Private Albert James Atkins, who served in the 16th Company of the 5th Battalion of the Imperial Yeomanry. That company was raised in Worcestershire. If that is your grandfather, then he was a mounted soldier rather than an infantryman.

Regards
Arthur
