| 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 ? .

| 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.
