Married Rachel Willcock in 1902 but their first son was born in 1898? "Harry" Henry Norgate (as per his death record) joined the army in 1891. He went to and India for five years and returned home (to England) and became an Army Reserve on 31 Dec 1898. He was then recalled to the Army and came to South Africa in January 1901. My question. Who's child was Ernest Norgate? Was he Rachel's child out of a previous relationship? There are currently no records of Ernest' baptism records.
