Good Afternoon Everyone...…

Did a jiffy bag dance today and I picked up a no bar QSA to:

PRIVATE A. MAARTENS, EAST GRIQUALAND MOUNTED VOLUNTEERS

I have searched all of the possible locations that I have access to including the units in the forum with absolutely no luck...…

Can anyone help..... Thanks in advance.....

A good question, Mike.

I'm not sure we have much on the EGMV. There is much more on the EGMR but that does not help you.

We do know where they operated: www.angloboerwar.com/forum/5-medals-and-...urrie-reserves#65170

And we have a roll: www.angloboerwar.com/unit-information/so...ican-units/2693-egmv

but not much else. There's nothing in Tylden on the MV.

Mike,

His surname is mis-spelled on my site so I will correct that tomorrow.
