have you got the snap? I sent it twice and I know I did wrong address once but neither have bounced back so I am a bit confused!?!

I just took snap and had a copy 8x10 when I got it home they had cut horses head in half - something SA couldn't do during Boer war!

all the best

I am an Ex Marsden lad and I am now in New Zealand one of my brothers lives in Australia and we can both tell you (he did work and told me):-

John Muskett (two thumbs) (born 1857) Married Ann Swallow (1856) he was a mill black smith. One of their children was a son John (called Jack 1880 ) and also a son called Arthur(1888) he was our grandad.
We have a snap John stood outside his house with his wife and his son John on a war horse ready to go to Boer War.

John's father was William and was born in 1811.

If you want I will send you the snap.

cheers

John Muskett
