QSA (2) RoM OFS (114 Pte. A. D. Venables. Transkei M.R.)

The description is limited to 'A. D. Venables served with the Transkei Mounted Rifles during the Boer War. '

A look at the rolls shows that Arthur D Venables earned the RoM Clasp from service in the Kimberley Volunteer Regiment (WO100/255p202 refers).

The TMR roll (WO100/277p148) only lists the OFS clasp and provides no link to his other service.

He also served in Brabant's Horse as 301 Trooper.
