The Register of the Anglo-Boer War 1899-1902.

The Register is the premier research resource for everyone interested in the participants of the Anglo-Boer War.

To find out about the scope, costs and how to use The Register click here.

The Register is a database that lists men and women who served in the British Imperial Forces during the war in southern Africa; soldiers, sailors, nurses and civilians can all be found in this unique database. To date there are over 269,425 entries. This includes a fully revised and corrected casualty roll of over 59,000 records; the best source for Anglo-Boer War casualties in print and on the Internet. Here are a few reasons why:

• 2,000 individual records not in the Official Casualty Rolls
• 3,000 casualty events not in the Official Casualty Rolls
• 17,000 casualty records updated/corrected (31% of the total casualties)
• 15,000 casualties linked to a war memorial
• 900 casualty locations have a gazetteer entry
• Over 400 sources are used by The Register

On The Register you can check the Queen's South Africa entitlement for all cavalry regiments, the Imperial Yeomanry, Scottish Horse, Lovat's Scouts and many other thousands of men and women - look for 'ME' when you search for a name.
