Grant , John Alexander (J A)

26 Aug 2026: Corps from SAWGP Regiment South African Technical Services Corps; Unit leftover "South African Medical Corps" → Eastern Province Command Workshop (SAWGP Unit).
4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "South African Army" cleared -- that's the service branch (Army, as distinct from Navy/Air Force), not a specific regiment; the actual unit ("Eastern Province Command Workshop") is already captured in Unit. Per John's decision, the 52 records with no better Unit info were left as-is.
Mike Sandham's research log ("List 1"), imported 16 Sep 2026, credited to The South Africa War Graves Project unless his entry says otherwise: filled Rank, RankID -- each of these was EMPTY on this record and no existing value was changed. Derived fields recomputed inline where applicable.
Mike Sandham's research log ("List 1"), imported 16 Sep 2026, credited to The South Africa War Graves Project unless his entry says otherwise: ServiceNo CORRECTED P/50296 -> P/9135. The stored number was contamination, not a reading of this man's record: PersonNumbers 41602 to 41604 -- 3 consecutive records -- all carried the identical number P/50296, which belongs to the record at the head of that run (41602, Riley, Vivian Lewellyn (V L)). A value repeated down a consecutive block of PersonNumbers is a forward-fill import artefact, not men who shared a service number. Mike's log supplies a different and plausible number for this man specifically, so the stored value is known-wrong regardless of whether the replacement proves exact. The displaced value is recorded here.
