I spent some time trying to track this man's identity down without success. Please let me know if YOU come up with anything.

Doesn't help much with his identity in the AZW, but he returned to Natal on 20 April 1920 with his wife aboard SS Ingenia. He died on 1 September at Corby Rock, Malongerri Station, Natal. He left £8,772.00 to Robert Walter Bradstreet and Thomas Lee Broome de Bary.

Hi Steve
Many thanks for the information. That was a large sum of money back in 1920.

Andy my boy ....that's a lot of money NOW ! hahahahaha , back in 1920 it's akin to a King's ransom ! . I wonder if the Bradstreet named as a beneficiary is any relation to Captain Robert Bradstreet ..KIA Isandlwana ? ( same Christian name ! ? ) . I can't say I've heard of him , I checked a couple of the usual sources , as no doubt others have done , no luck . 90th

90th Interesting connection. I'll try to follow the Bradstreet up and see if anything emerges.

Sounds like he may have been NMR but out with Chelmsford.

Yes Julian , there's a Trooper Du Barry 1879 Clasp Medal in the Roll of the NMR in Dutton's Book , he's also on the Roll in the Sole book , but just the surname , also no first name initials in Forsyth but is stated to have the Medal with 1879 Clasp . 90th

Great! Well done! At least we now have his name spelt right (providing the Leamington Spa Courier got it right!!).

On the 1851 Census, Peter's surname is spelt De Bary.
