  • George James RESS [sic] 1911 Look-up please

    Surname should be REES of course, and this set of records is not among those at Ancestry [that's why I could never find him when I had a sub]. However, on doing a casual search today at Familysearch I found:

    Name George James Ress
    Event Type Census
    Event Date 1911
    County Overseas Military
    Age 21
    Birthplace Cowes Isle Of Wight, Hampshire
    Record Type Institution

    And FMP have the record of course.

    I wonder if some kind FTFer would let me know what is on the census for him, esp. which regiment / where located.

    Thanks

    He is on Ancestry but they've put him as 11 years old.

    George James Rees 21 sapper, single, carpenter born Cowes, Isle of Wight. I think its 55th Field Company, Royal Engineers but someone else may be able to work that out. According to FMP they were at Robert's Heights, Transvaal, South Africa
