Greetings
I have collected a gold rail watch that was presented in March 4th 1903, to LT EE Jones, by his man after he was wounded in battle on the 8th October 2001 in South Africa during the AngloBoer war. There is an engraving on the back of the watch referring to the above. I traced through the website LT EE Jones participation on the KFS and him getting wounded. I wonder if they are any more records of LT EE Jones or his family history?
He served with Kitcheners fighting scouts in 1901-2
The engrave states :

PRESENTED TO
LT E.E.JONES
BY N.C.O's & MEN, OF HIS TROOP AS A TOKEN OF ESTEEM & REGARD WARM BATHS SI MÁRCH 1903

Welcome Aris,

His forenames are not recorded on the medal or nominal rolls. He joined the South African Constabulary after the Boer War so I suggest contacting Rhino Research (see Contacts in the top menu) as they have access the SAC records. That may be the easiest way to track him down.

Good luck
