Rory,

I think he was wounded at Elandslaagte in April 1900.

The SALH nominal roll offers no information and I have yet to find him on the SALH QSA roll.

The number 1094 belongs to SQMS J N Ayrer but he was court martialled, discharged with ignominy and refused a medal.

Frank Snowden's number of 1049 not 1094.

His QSA (3) is verified on WO100/274p107

But still no Elandslaagte clasp? If he wounded there he must have qualified for and been awarded the clasp.

Was wounded April 1900 at Elandslaagte, the clasp only issued for the battle at Elandslaagte 21st October 1899.
