    Ocs & the Boer War

    OLD CONWAYS & THE BOER WAR v19 The Conway Chapel at Birkenhead Priory contains the Memorial Boards and Honour Boards for WWI and WWII. It has been known for some time that OCs participated in the Boer War and that at least one lost his life. Members of the Old South African branch of the Conway Club agreed that the South African Conway Centenary Shield presented by them in 1959 should be re-purposed as the Boer War Memorial Shield. This summary of OCs who lost their lives in, or who participated in that war acts as a form of Boer War Honours Board as it was not possible authoritatively to list all those honoured in that war with either gallantry or service medals. The photo below right shows Guy Brooke-Smith (44-46) presenting the shield to Captain Hewitt on Sports Day 1959. The photo below right shows him presenting it as the Boer War Memorial to the Chapel in June 2017. 1 CONTENTS 1 OCS WHO DIED ON SERVICE .................................................................................................... 3 2 OCS WHO SERVED IN THE ARMED SERVICES ....................................................................... 4 3 OCS WHO SERVED IN THE MN ................................................................................................ 15 4 “COMFORTS” FOR THE TROOPS ............................................................................................. 17 5 SOURCES ................................................................................................................................... 18 2 1 OCS WHO DIED ON SERVICE Edmund Evan K.

    A History of 119 Infantry Brigade in the Great War with Special Reference To

    The History of 119 Infantry Brigade in the Great War with Special Reference to the Command of Brigadier-General Frank Percy Crozier by Michael Anthony Taylor A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract 119 Brigade, 40th Division, had an unusual origin as a ‘left-over’ brigade of the Welsh Army Corps and was the only completely bantam formation outside 35th Division. This study investigates the formation’s national identity and demonstrates that it was indeed strongly ‘Welsh’ in more than name until 1918. New data on the social background of men and officers is added to that generated by earlier studies. The examination of the brigade’s actions on the Western Front challenges the widely held belief that there was an inherent problem with this and other bantam formations. The original make-up of the brigade is compared with its later forms when new and less efficient units were introduced.
