January 31, 2009 - SA 2009 Fort Amajuba
We had a blip in our schedule today so we had
a chance to see a battle site of the British vs. Boer War.
The hill where the battle took place
This is one account of the battle.
The Boers routed the British
This is picture of the British General who died in the battle.
As Dorren was reading about the battle she recognized the
general had the same name as ancestors on her husbands side.
The name is Colley and Doreen's husband had some distant
relatives who were royalty in England. Doreen is going to
follow up to see if this General was a descent
on her husbands side.
