Other Countries / Barotse Namwala Cattle Cordon BNCC - Northern Rhodesia c1920s
« on: Monday 12 November 18 10:47 GMT (UK)  »
Does anyone know where the various Posts were situated along the cordon?
As I understand it, Post #2 was at Chunga, Post #12 at Mulanga, Post #15 Maranga Pool, and then ending up on the Zambezi.

Any help filling in the gaps greatly appreciated.

Thanks MaxD

One of the brothers served in 1893 & was at Singuesi, and later with the BFF (Giffords Horse) in 1896
Would he have received the undated medal with 'Matebeleland 1893' clasp and the 'Rhodesia 1896' clasp?

The other brother was also in the BFF (Gifford's Horse) in 1896, so presumably the 1896 medal with no clasp?

i've not been able to verify if they were together at Singuesi.

How does one ascertain which medal of the variants someone would have been entitled to?
I have two great uncles both on the medal rolls and looking for assistance to confirm which medal they could have received
