Find Ancestors

Angela, since the thread is 6 years old I doubt that Donald will be looking at it. I would think that he'd be thrilled to see a copy of the diary that you mention. Why not click on his name and send a personal message?

I am related to John Wair's second wife Florence, their daughter had no children but my grandmother Gertrude Tancock was her niece. I have copy of a diary of his service in the Boer War. Please contact me for more info.....

I have just come across your postings on John Wair. I am related to his 2nd wife Florence. I have a copy of a diary he kept during the Boer War and also knew Charles Keel. Please contact me to share information. Angela Crofts

Hi all you lovely people who have provided information on my Grandmothers father John Wair 1856,from his service record onwards. The information on my Grandmothers sister Grace is most helpful and I will be hoping to find out more information on her descendants.
Sincerely

Donald Chapman

I've had a lovely pm from Donald too. He is thrilled to bits with the information he has received.......now, if only we could get him to reply on here :-D :-D :-D

I have also sent the images for the service records by the new message system,worked very well.

Donald has acknowledged receipt of same.

George

Nice PM received from Donald.

I THINK I've sent a scan from Scotland's People back to him. We'll see how that goes........

Maureen

yes i hope he comes back, i would like to know if the Army record i posted is correct, and would he like me to send him copies.


George

'Tis a pleasure Maureen!

I have sent Donald a pm to explain that he does not need to view my tree and that you would all be pleased to hear from him and, maybe, help him further. He has opened it so here's hoping he makes it back!

Cx :-D

I would be thrilled to hear from Donald about our findings!!!

Thank you so much,Cynthia!!!

Donald, I did very little in comparison with the others who have helped you.

I am sure they would be pleased to hear your thoughts on their various findings. :-D

Thank you so much, I am very grateful for all your information on John Wair ancestors and descendants

Hello Donald,

It may be worth putting John's name into the Search Trees box above (in the top dark green bar) as at least one other member of this site has him in their tree. You can contact the tree owner for possible further information. Cx.
