Hi Linda
Thanks for your post, but I am afraid we may have to beg to differ on this on.
As Catherine Norgate  after being widowed, married Stephen Merritt and had three children by him.
According to the 1841 census, the Norgate's first born William was living with them and working on the farm with his Stepfather.
So the mystery deepens!

Hi Judy nice to "hear" from you too.
Catherine Merritt died in Bramdean Hants in 1863.
They had  three children....George (1825 - 1902 My Great Granddad), Lucy (1826- 1863) and Stephen ( 1828 - 1856)
In the 1841 census William Norgate aged 25 was living with them in Bramdean......but in 1851 he had moved on.
Any other queries I can help with?
Let me know, I don't know how to email you from this site

 (1816 - 1894) Catherine remarried after her Husbands death, to Stephen Merritt (my Great Great Granddad) in Hinton Ampner in 1823.
