Border Scouts enrollment/discharge ledger and QSA remarks roll (WO127-style scans on angloboerwar.com's Border Scouts unit page, 'Nominal rolls (3)' tab: Roll 2 / 8th Squadron ledgers plus Roll 1 QSA remarks). Raised at Upington, May 1900; later 8 squadrons, 786 all ranks; north-western Cape Colony (Kenhardt–Upington–Prieska). Stirling, J. (1907), The Colonials in South Africa 1899-1902, as reproduced on the same unit page: 1 officer and 19 NCOs and men killed, over 100 wounded; 'Curiously enough, no man of the regiment died of disease.' Ledger disease deaths are recorded anyway — Stirling's none-of-disease claim is noted, not used to omit them. angloboerwar.com Boer War Forum, 'Medals to the Border Scouts' (https://www.angloboerwar.com/forum/5-medals-and-awards/30317-medals-to-the-border-scouts Roll 2 and QSA: 3 Daniels Frederick Tpr, "Killed 8/7/01" / "Killed Waterfall 8.7.01". Stirling: on 8 July 1901, after the 25 June fight with Conroy, there was further fighting and the Scouts lost 3 men killed (Captain C. Tabuteau wounded — he appears later in this roll as a surviving officer). The ledger names more than three killed that day at Waterfall; all named deaths are added.
Second reading of the QSA remarks roll (1 Sep 2026) after a page-scan of all 39 Roll 1 images. QSA remarks also readable as "Killed Steinkopf 6.8.01". Roll 2 "Killed 8/7/01" (Waterfall cluster) kept as DateDeath.
