1820 Settlers from Norway to Natal: there were no Norwegian Settlers to Natal in 1820 (Port Natal only started out as a trading settlement in 1824 with Fynn and Farewell) but there were later arrivals including the Debora expedition of 1879 and the so-called Marburg Settlers of 1882. Visit http://salbu.co.za/debora/ and http://salbu.co.za for some fascinating facts.
