Hello Frank

If you go to the IGI www.familysearch.org
and enter William Tracy and North America for region it will show a William
Tracy with death in 1946 Kitscotty Alberta Canada. It will show his birth 7
March 1862 at Altona Ontario Canada and his father William Tracy and mother
Sarah Bostick. If this is him?
He is also shown in the Collections Canada website
www.collectionscanada.ca/archivianet/ssouth-africa-war/001002-100-e.php
Enter his surname and initial W. If you know his regimental number you can
also enter it but not necessary. Click on the box to the left of his name
and it will show his listing. Click on the P.92 designation and it will show
his regimental number, rank, dates and presentation details, if this is him.
You can then send for his records as show, directions on line.
