The lists you have copied are for the Irregular Regiments raised in South Africa during the War. There is another relevant published list of the men from the Volunteer (Militia) Regiments from the Cape Colony and Natal, which is included in the following paper:

King Edward VII Coronation Medal Roll 1902 (Cape Colony and Natal) and King George V Coronation Roll 1911 (Union of South Africa)
by W McC Bisset (Pages 424 to 431 in an unnamed journal).
Bisset extracted the names from WO 100/111 X/J 2985 and CO 523/37 6429.

Perhaps a reader knows the name of the journal, and permission can be obtained to copy the paper for inclusion here.

Thank you Brett. I will check that out.

Are there more pages in the archives? I've got the QSA/Coronation 1902 to Sampson of Thornicroft's Mounted Infantry. Not sure where their roll would be?

I found it. You just missed a page.

If anyone wants to download the whole thing it is here and free:
Title: WO 100. Queen Victoria's Jubilee, King Edward's Coronation and Delhi Durbar
Item number: 4264703
Catalogue reference: WO 100/111

It is 4 files. Go through them all as in addition to the units as David listed there are pages here and there for Cape and Natal Contingents which seem to be involved but not part of the units.

Cheers
Ryan
