There is an Ernest Norris who emigrated to the USA in 1902, could that be him?

Date of departure: 25 October 1902 from Southampton
Passenger destination port: New York
Date of Birth: 1885 (calculated from age) Age: 17
Marital status: Single
Occupation: Farmer
Ship: ST PAUL

This was the same ship as Clifford sailed on two years later, I see his occupation was farmer as well and his destination was given as New York.

There is a tree on Ancestry that has his wife as Adelaid Dreblow who died in 1932, no other details.

Hi Jedi...and Sandra  :D
 
I am helping a good friend of mine research Ernest and Clifford Norris.  They were Uncles to her father.  I was wondering, Jedi, what your relationship is to the Norris family and also, you too Sandra? You have so much information on the family once they immigrated to the United States that you must be related to them?  I am really looking forward to hearing from you.  If you would prefer to use my email address it is: (*)

Kindest regards,
Rae Martin,   :)
