QSA (4) Defence of Ladysmith, Transvaal, Laing’s Nek, South Africa 1901 (244 Tpr: P. Werner. Umvoti M.R.);
Natal (1) 1906 (Sgt: P. Werner, Umvoti Mtd. Rifles)

M&E say he is entitled to KSA (2) but there is a cross against his name suggesting the KSA was withheld (WO100/363p212)

QSA (5) Tugela Heights, Relief of Ladysmith, Transvaal, Laing’s Nek, South Africa 1901 (173 Tpr: J. Von Elling. Umvoti M.R);
Natal (0) (Sub: Leader J. Von Elling, New Hanover Res.)

M&E say 'J. von Elling of the Umvoti Mounted Rifles is listed on the medal roll (but full clasp entitlement is unclear); roll also confirms the Natal Rebellion Medal (Sub Leader).'

The roll is clear (WO100/260p47)



SA01 listed on WO100/260p53.
