(Then) Capt JW Jackson was Company Commander, "C" Coy., 3rd SA Infantry
(Transvaal Regiment) in 1915. The whole of C Coy were apprently from the RLI
(Rand Light Infantry). I suggest you contact the RLI Regimental Association.
They have a webpage.

Subject: MAJOR JOHN WILLIAM JACKSON - WINBURG OFS


> I am trying to trace living or dead relatives of Major John William
Jackson b.1/6/1884 Willaston, Cheshire England. Son of Elizabeth and Thomas
Jackson. He fought in the Boer War and later in WW1. He died 20th July 1916
France. John was married to Annie Frances, they had six children and lived
in Winburg OFS. I have already put an advert in the Volksbladt paper in
Winburg but did not get any response. John is my great uncle. I have a lot
of information on John's family and ancestors dating back to the 1700's.
