Hello Peter,

I can confirm that 3631 Sgt. F.S. Keery was awarded the Queen's South Africa
Medal with clasps Cape Colony, Orange Free State and Transvaal. It is likely
that he also received the King's South Africa Medal with clasps South Africa
1901 and South Africa 1902 but I don't have the KSA roll. He is the only
Keery on the QSA roll of any regular cavalry regiment. He doesn't appear on
the casualty roll so seems to have survived the war unscathed.

Regards,

David Humphry
