Hi all can any one help me please?
My Great Grandfather was A Boer war soldier (3rd Battalion Essex Rgt his service number is 7155)
I have his QSA medal with Cape colony, Orange Free State,and Transvaal clasps but my trouble is I have his paperwork that says Cape colony space, space, space, South Africa 1902. I have been told that the medal can't have Sth Africa 1902 with out having Sth Africa 1901 is this true? And why does his medal have extra clasps OFS and Transvaal but missing Sth Africa 1901 and 1902
