                    Kimberley Siege Account and Medal Roll

We  have been working on a new version of the medal roll for the Defence of Kimberley clasp for the QSA.  This work should be finalised in mid 2008.

The medal roll contains a list of all the recipients of the QSAs.  Where the recipient's QSA and other medals are known, brief details are also listed.  We have identified that many Defence of Kimberley clasps (over 850 so far) have survived the century since they were issued but we would like to ask for your help to identify as many as possible.

If you have details of any Defence of Kimberley clasps, please email the information to webmaster@angloboerwar.com.

The medal roll will only contain details of the medals and will not contain any ownership information.  The privacy of your own details will be maintained.  The location of medals is only included where the medals are on public display, for example in a museum.

Here is an example of the type of information in the medal roll.
