| Taunton | Charles Edmund | | Major | He was killed in action on November 3rd, 1899, in a reconnaissance from Ladysmith along the Colenso road. The enemy was in considerable force and the officer in command, finding their numbers increasing, determined on withdrawing. Concerning this reconnaissance, Sir A Conan Doyle writes "the death of Major Taunton, Captain Knapp, and young Brabant, the son of the general who did such good service at a later stage of the war, was a heavy price to pay for the knowledge that the Boers were in considerable strength to the south". Major Taunton, who was the only son of Mrs Taunton, was a keen man of business, well known in South African finance, and a director of many of the older gold mining companies. He was a Fellow of the Royal Colonial Institute, and his name was inscribed on a memorial tablet in the hall of the building in Northumberland Avenue, London.
