| I know a few may have gone by this name but a Private Edwards 2/3rd escaped from Isandlwana, was his name Thomas? |

| I was quite sure I seen a list of Isandlwana survivers recently with the name Pte Edwards on it. I will have another look. I put a post on Did They Didn't They today about a letter written by Thomas Evans RD defender? Have you seen it? Quite convincing.

| Hi Eddie I believe that post is incorrect , Julian will see and clear it up for you , Col Bray 2/4th has confused the name Edwards , it should be Edward Evans 2/3rd , no Edwards in the IMI , or from the 2/ 3rd ? . 90th |

| Hi All My previous post is wrong, the marriage and Death details probably relate to Thomas Edwards 17th Lancers who served in the Zulu War who died in Birmingham in 1941. Rai KLH |
