Seeking and relations of George ROBERTSON born 1875. Father also George mother Jean(nee Johnston). Thought to have moved from Orkney Islands about 1875 to Canada. Then back to Scotland or Orkney before moving to South Africa. The family apparently raised horses which they sold to British. George ROBERTSON and a brother (John) fought in the Boer War. About 1905 George moved to New Zealand. We have no records as they were burnt in fire. Also records in a church in Orkneys were burnt. Unable to trace in Canada or with the unit he was supposed to have fought with (Natal Carbineers)
ANY HELP GREATFULLY RECEIVED.
