Joubert | Pietrus Jacobus | | General | 1831 was the year of his birth in Cango near Prince Albert in the Cape. He took part in the Great Trek in 1838 with Piet Retief's party into Natal. From Natal, his family moved north to the Transvaal. In 1866 he represented Wakkerstroom in the Volksraad. He served in the First Anglo Boer War as Commandant General for the Transvaal. He defeated Sir George Colley at Laing's Nek and Majuba Hill in 1881. He suppressed the Swazis in 1895 and captured the Jameson Raiders in 1897. He had become Vice President of the Transvaal in 1896. At the commencement of the Boer War his role was as it had been for 14 years, Commandant General of the Boer forces, a position he had held since 1885. His position meant that he had an instrumental role in directing the early operations. During the Battle of Ladysmith re refused to follow up the British withdrawal saying "if the Lord extends a finger, do not take the whole hand". He advanced into Natal but halted further incursion after the battle of Willow Grange. He was injured in a fall from his horse. Command was passed to Louis Botha. He died in Pretoria in March 1900 and was buried on his farm Rustfontein near Alleman's Nek. Creswicke says of him "He was of Huguenot descent, which may have accounted for his civilised attitude as statesman and politician, and the wide views which some of his countrymen failed to appreciate. The General was an inveterate smoker and a shrewd thinker. He had been to England several times, and knew better than his compatriots the risk of embroiling himself with a mighty nation. Nevertheless he went into the field as a brave man, determined to meet the inevitable—fighting." | Boer Forces |
