19th December 2002	Jeff Mathews By Julian Whybra Hoes anyone have a contact e-mail or address for Dr Jeff Mathews - the last I heard of him he was working for the Natal Education Dept. I'm on the edge of finishing an article but need to check a source that he once used.

19th December 2002	Keith Smith Julian I recently sent an email to him at Natal Uni., Durban, hoping to arrange to see him while I was there at the end of October. I received no reply, which I thought was a bit odd, so I assume that he is no longer there. Sorry, but that doesn't really help you! Keith
20th December 2002	Julian Whybra Thanks to everyone who replied direct to me. I've now established contact with him. Keith, if you still need to contact him, let me know direct and I'll pass on contact details.
21st December 2002	Ron Lock Julian - this is a reply to your Umlanga Regiment question. Unlanga Regiment "The Reeds". Details from Finneys List, November 1878: Raised by Mpande; age 28; number 1000. There is an abbreviated form of Finney's list as an appendix in "Zulu Victory"
21st December 2002	Julian whybra Yes, thanks, I've seen this list already but the question was were they at Isandhlwana or not and can someone come up with a primary source to establish the yea or nay?
