He was the third son of Major General Saunders-Knox-Gore, RA, of Belleek Manor, Ballina, Mayo, and Ardmore, Torquay, who died in 1902. Captain Saunders-Knox-Gore was born in February 1862. He entered the army from the RMC passing out with honours, January 1883, and first served in the West India Regiment, but exchanged into the Inniskilling Dragoons, November 1885, and afterwards into the Queen's Bays, retiring in 1895. When the war broke out he offered his services which were accepted and he was appointed Captain in Thorneycroft's Mounted Infantry. He was present at the action at Acton Homes, and when he fell at Spion Kop an officer reports, "he was last seen standing up, pointing with his hand, and encouraging his men, at that moment a Boer bullet passed through his heart". Captain Saunders-Knox-Gore was buried on Spion Kop, close to where he fell. Colonel Thorneycroft wrote concerning him "His memory will ever remain dear to his comrades".
