Biography contributed by Claude McKelvey

When Charles Stuart Anderson enlisted in 1901 in the 6th QIB and his photo was published with the rank and file in The Queenslander, 13 Apr 1901, he noted his N.O.K. as his mother Mrs Anderson, Ipswich. In the Boer War Service Paybooks for the 6th QIB he noted that part of his pay was to be directed to his father Mr. G. A. Anderson, East Street, Ipswich.
