Warren's attempts to clear the area of Cape rebels, his column reached the farm on 26 May 1900 and bivouacked there for several days whilst his forces regrouped and supplies were sent forward. Early on the morning of 30 May the farm and camp were attacked by three columns of burghers, some 500-600, from Campbell. A spirited defence led to the retreat of the burghers with considerable loss; on the British side 15 were killed and 30 wounded. HMG III pp.19-22 (map no.43).

Wendy,

You can see from the attached image that the lettering on this memorial is a little tricky to read, I have double checked the names and I am quite sure that I have transcribed it correctly.

From my brief look at some of the men on this plaque I think it is going to be a difficult memorial to research. I think the parishioners of All Saint's may have been able to name relatives who lived in other areas of the country.

Thanks again for your time and help.
