A famous name during the Anglo Boer War and the subsequent regiment that retained the name as part of the Transvaal Volunteer Force.
Regarding the Anglo Boer War, their nominal roll is in WO127 at Kew with rank and file papers in WO126/130-138, you should note there are no extant papers for SAMIF officers who held direct entry commissions.

Many thanks
