Graham
A couple of years ago I received a large amount of genealogical and biographical information on GHB and his family and although I have no idea of the accuracy of the research which produced these results, the details appear to give every indication that some very sound work has been done.
The information came from the husband of a great-grand daughter of GHB, and this couple have apparently spent some years researching the family, especially "Maori" himself. It contains a great deal on his parents, siblings, siblings' careers and marriages, GHB's children etc. etc., as well as a "timeline" of GHB's life & career, the whole coming to about six full A4 sheets on email.
It was clearly the sender's wish to exchange and receive info on GHB & to have contact with other interested parties so I have no hesitation in sharing it all with you (or anyone else), although obviously I won't put his email address up on the site itself. If you let me have your postal address I'll pop a full copy in the post; I no longer have the email itself in my computer so it'll have to be by photocopy.
Peter

,
A VERY big thank you to those who responded to my query on "Maori Brown (e), " a character i must admit i know very little , indeed NOTHING about . My special thanks in advance to Julian Whybra for his offer of data. My postal address is as follows : Graham Mason , 11 Bryn - y - Maen , LLANGEFNI , Anglesey , LL77 7RN . It makes me wonder what sort of vetting process was employed ( if at all ! ) on some of these men .
Many " unknowns " are coming to the front who participated in the Zulu War of 1879 as well as new facts on established men . For many a year i believed FRED HITCH VC had but 6 children but the facts speak for themselves , he had 11 . QM Bloomfield was indeed married TWICE , while Sgt Windridge no less than THREE times !!! , i have two marriage details but his initial marriage data still eludes me , i will find it in due course and add many and greatful thanks to those with much more and better knowledge on this fascinating campaign .
Perhaps someone out there has a list of the men who actually left the camp with Chelmsford and even have knowledge of who they were and further service in the 1879 campaign . , again thanks to those who responded on " Maori Browne " , Graham .
