MALYON, Thomas


No.4253, Private, Thomas MALYON
Aged ?


1st Battalion, Suffolk Regiment

Died of Illness on 1st April 1900


It is not always possible to match the soldier with the civilian with these Boer War casualties.
That means I can only record "most likely to be" in many cases for the civilian identity
In this case even that proved impossible


Apart from his name on the Memorial and an entry on http://www.casus-belli.co.uk/index.asp?display=record&soldierid=16517 nothing has been found, not on Bury Free Press nor any of the usual website to identify this man either as a civilian, or his service/medal details


casus belli indicates he died on 1st April 1900 at Naaupoort from enteric fever
