Jean welcome to the Forum. Given the time period you are interested in, your best bet is to go online at the National Archives website and do a search of the Seamans Service Records. Having looked at the Geniuk Coastguard site, I think this might be your man: http://www.nation...ultcount=4 Regards Martin |

Jean Sometimes the Service Record states cause of death; the only other option is to order his Death Certificate. From the BDM register there is a George William Smith who died in the Scilly Isles ref: 1900 Q2, Vol 5c page 181. Martin |
