Hi All,
Am I right in thinking that the order from top to bottom on my GGF's Clasps on the QSA Medal are...'Cape Colony', 'Relief of Kimberley', 'Paardeberg', 'Dreifontein', 'Johannesburg', 'Diamond Hill' and 'Wittebergen'.
He was in SA until 27/7/1902 so does his KSA Medal still remains with the 2 bars.
Many thanks for any assistance,
AllanG

Officially, the presence of the "Relief of Kimberley" clasp on your GGFs QSA would rule out the clasp "Cape Colony".

Yes, the sequence of the remainder is what I would expect to see.

One thing that I have notices is that they should be the other way round read from bottom or closest to medal to top......
