In the Belfast News Letter of Wednesday 30th August 1899,
under Marriage announcements, it says:

"GORMAN—DILWORTH—August 3 at Bulawayo,
South Africa, by the Rev. Archdeacon Upcher,
James J. Gorman, M.R.C.V.S., to Maud M.
Dilworth of Moy, County Tyrone, Ireland."


Maud Mary Dilworth of Moy, County Tyrone, was the sister of my
Great Grandfather.

They definitely had a child.
On Ancestry.co.uk I have seen a passenger list of a Maud Gorman
and Sydney Gorman (a child over 1 years old) returning to
Southampton from Capetown in April 1903.

The Rev. Archdeacon Upcher was an Anglican.
I realise that the Anglican Church records are in the process of
being scanned and indexed. Would it please be possible to get
any information from records about the marriage or birth/baptism?

Thanks.

Stephen

    @Stephen9333 It appears those records are only accessible on microfilm at the SL Library at this time. There is a DGS number so at some point they may be available online:

    Parish registers (baptisms, banns, marriages, burials, confirmations), Church of England in Rhodesia, Bulawayo (Zimbabwe), 1898-1957, 1898-19
