Sgt. Henry Flockhart Rome
British Army Royal Army Medical Corps
from:Umtali, Rhodesia
We know little of Henry Flockhart's early life in Southern Rhodesia except that he was employed by Lennons Ltd as a pharmacist from 1911 to 1920. We have so far been unable to find any trace of attestation papers but are fairly certain that he enlisted in Rhodesia. Family stories have him serving in Salonika at some stage but we can find no verification of this. He was discharged in 1918 and returned to Rhodesia where, in 1920, he was married in Salisbury. The following year he had to return to Scotland to sort out some family matters and never returned to Rhodesia.
If anyone is able to provide more details, I would be most grateful.
