Noel,

Is it possible your George Rex is the son of the Knysna "founder"
of the same name?
I have a delightful book book called "George Rex : Death of a
Legend" by Patricia Storrar (published my MacMillan Souuth Africa
1974 in Johannesburg - ISBN 0 86954 017 3).

On page 143 of this book it gives George Rex jnr's birthdate as 4
Dec 1822.

Regards

Tara
