These links can help you trace your Australian Military ancestors including thosw tho fought in the Boer War.
Just select the buttons to the right and be taken to the best sites for you to find out the details of the ancestor's service.
The Boer, World War 1 and World War 2 buttons allow you to search the Australian War Memorial nominal rolls for those who served in wars up to World War 2.
The Detailed Records button takes you to the National Archives of Australia online database. Here you can even find the detailed personnel records of World War 1 veterans.
The War Graves button takes you to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission search site where you can find the location of your military ancestor's grave.
Australians in the Boer War Oz-Boer Database Project will normally generate more information about an individual Australian soldier who went to the Boer War than the Australian War Memorial site, and it will also give the file number for any personal records that the National Archives hold on an individual.
