Zulu War (1877-79) Casualty list
« Reply #1 on: Sunday 31 December 06 14:01 GMT (UK) »
Casualty Rolls of the South African Campaign of 1877-79 (the Zulu War).

Extracted from the work by Tavender which was published in Regimental and Rank order, it is listed by surname. These casualties are Battle casualties, not those who died of disease.

I also hate to tell you that the 1879memorials website has disappeared as well.
