Hello all
I recall seeing a recent log on this forum referring to a Mnr Braam Wessels owner of the farm near Boshoff where Gen Maruiel de Villebois was killed .
Has anyone got Mr Wessel's contact tel no?
On a recent visit to the city of Nantes in Brittany, France I came upon a large bronze memorial statue honouring Gen de Villebois he being a son of that city.
The bronze plaque mistakenly referred to Boshoff being in the Transvaal.... :silly:
Perhaps the Nantes historians erecting the monument also considered the ABW as being the Transvaal war? ;)
looking forward to replies. tks Evyn
