In Memoriam
It is with great sadness that Jersey SA learned of the passing of
Pieter Marais of Gouda. Except for being a Jersey Stud
Breeder, he was also a judge, and a member of the Western
Cape Club.
Our deepest sympathies to the family.
In Memoriam
Jean Bosworth Smith, an honorary life member of the Natal
Club since 1995, passed away peacefully on the 19th
December aged 90. Jean and Tony were the second
generation curators of the Baldinnie herd founded in 1947
and were actively involved in the Natal Jersey Club since the
early 1950s.
We extend our deepest sympathy to Ian and Gwen Watson,
Mervyn and Maryna Bosworth Smith and their families.
Milk Recording
We would like to bring the two milk recording options under the attention of our breeders for their information. We
would like you to take note of the following points for the sake of clarity:
JSA is pro milk recording and encourages our breeders to take part in this.
It is the choice of the breeder which of the two providors you would like to use.
JSA maintains a good working relationship with both parties for the sake of our breeders.
Both parties offers additional services to their clients, please contact them for more information.
