A photograph would be of considerable help here, the first sounds like the 2nd Rhodesia Regiment, but, this is not Anglo Boer War.

Very nice, that is a 2nd Rhodesia Regiment as first mentioned the 9ZAR is the is the ninth South African Ruiters, they wore both SAH and ZAR on the shoulder straps, both are Great War rather than Anglo Boer War.

Thank you Frank
I just got about 200 badges and buttons in to sort out
Thinking of creating a display with relevant info
Is there a good site which will help with identifying them and maybe relevant info ?
I'm sure thet are all original as they have decent patina.

Well, those are certainly original, generally speaking, very few South African badges have been faked and are a safe bet, the Civil Protection Service too, but, not Anglo Boer War, so not relevant here, but, you could look at the British Military Badge Forum which does have a South African section, good luck with your collection.
