Search this database of over 300 records of people who died in the Norvalspont concentration Camp. Norvalspont was probably established about November 1900, in order to relieve the overcrowded Bloemfontein camp with its dire shortage of water. During a visit to this camp Emily Hobhouse could not even find a trained nurse.
