Hi All,

Does member have details of the number of QSA's issued to each T.G.?
Gordon's have Ladysmith, Laingsberg, Mafeking combined (for some obscure reason) as 513, is there a breakup of the entitlement / issues?

Cheers,

Jim

Hello Jim,
A brief head count in WO100/283 shows as far as medals go, 56 to the Ladismith Town Guard, 20 to the Ladismith Reserve Town Guard and 162 to the Ladysmith Town Guard.
Regards Frank

Jim,

Have a look at the pages for the town guards . If you click on Search on the table section, you will see the men listed (if I have them).

Hi Frank & David,

Thanks for the replies. Frank, do you have the issue / entitlement for Ladismith DMT?
David, the QSA I have to the Ladysmith TG is named to G Cowan. I am almost sure that it doesn't have his number impressed on it, but I'll check.

Cheers,

Jim

Hello Jim,
There appear to be 48 men on the Ladismith District Mounted Troop roll.
Kind regards Frank

Ho Frank,

Many thanks for the reply and photo. I often wonder how many of these medals still exist.

Cheers,

Jim
