I had quite forgotten that I had the CAFLSM awarded to Major George Frederick Tatham. Tatham was quite a luminary in colonial Ladysmith and kept a comprehensive diary on the Siege. He was a Major with the Carbineers.

I had made approaches to a family member who ostensibly has the other medals to the Major but the "trail ran cold"

A very nice medal, Rory. I see he was a Major on his QSA too. Major F S Tatham was in the in the DoL and at Elandslaagte.
