My gt gt grandmother was Frances Mary Eager born c 1850 in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape. She married James Bennett a soldier from England in 1870, it was a military marriage in the garrison. They had 3 children in South Africa then came to live in England where they had 5 or more. Her father was Charles Eagar (as on her marriage certificate). If anyone has any more information on this family I would be most grateful. I am not sure if it it was this Charles Eagar who had 2 wives Elizabeth Hester Ford and then Magdalena Elizabeth Schoombee?
