This is my granddad. I didn't know he had gone to the Boer War. He returned and married Isabella Taylor Dixon. Donald lost his life in the Brunner Mine in October 1914.

This is my grandfather Samuel McMahon from Saltcoats Scotland's older brother. Sam also served in the Boer wars, as a boy bugler and won several medals. His regiment was the Highland light infantry.
