I hope this is not a silly question, but I would like to find the medal entitlement for Midshipman Lewis Cadwallader Coker.

I can see from his naval record that he is entitled to the South African Medal 1877-79 but how can I find if he was entitled to anything else?

Thank you in advance.

Coker was very young - he had no other medals.
The roll shows his South Africa medal with clasp "1879" sent to his father, R. C. Coker, on 22nd August 1881.

Kev T,

Welcome to the forum.  Lewis Cadwallader Coker was 18 years old when he died March 17, 1879.  The South Africa Medal with "1879" clasp was the only medal awarded to him in his short career.  He was however, Mentioned in Despatches (M.I.D.) for his action in the Battle of Inyezane.  Had he not died, he most likely would have been promoted along with most of the other officers of HMS Active Naval Brigade.
