Was Egerton ever in India?

Thanks Ian.

I know that, but I might have formulated my question badly. I was looking for some part of his official biography with more details .
Sorry for being imprecise.

I dont have any proof Ariel, and I dont know in which book I read it, but recently I read the following.
Egerton, when he bought a weapon (in India), he wrote that this or that weapon was from the place where he bought it, and that was what he wrote in his book. Obviously the weapon could have come from there, or from somewhere else.
