Hi, I am looking for information on the above individuals, a father and son. Supposedly Daniel Thomas Cameron was born around 1835 in Canada. His father, Daniel Cameron, is thought to be from Scotland (unconfirmed). Daniel Thomas Cameron died in 1896 in the UK. He is listed as a Mariner on his marriage bann (in the UK 1847) and is not on any UK census until about 1871 - the wife lists him as at Sea on the 1851 census. I have found a document on Ancestry on the Canadia Seawafers (or something) that is mentioning a Daniel Thomas Cameron, a Master Mariner, and am wondering if there could be more information to be found either on Daniel Thomas, or his father. There is mention of Sydney, Nova Scotia (?), Point Wolfe (?) Cap Breton (?) in some of these documents and I am wondering if they may gave some idea of the location of where the father Daniel may have set up home, and where Daniel Thomas Cameron operated his shipping exploits from. Is anyone able to help shed some light on where to look for these 2 mariners!
Hi, as has recently been said, could you please make this haystack a little bit smaller . What did you find on Ancestry ? did you make a note ? Canadia Seawafers sound like food .........perhaps it was Canadian Seafarers ? perhaps you could find this again and check . Did you get his marriage certificate ? There is a marriage on Freebmd of a Daniel Cameron in Liverpool district in March 1847 quarter . Does his wife have a name ? where were they living in 1851 and 1871 ? if he was married in 1847 , he cannot have been born in 1835 , marriage of 12yr olds went out in medieval times. If you can narrow this search down for us , we may be able to help . -----Original Message----- From: Jacqueline Mercer via Sent: Sunday, July 26, 2015 4:04 PM To: MARINERS@rootsweb.com Subject: [MAR] Daniel Cameron and Daniel Thomas Cameron Hi, I am looking for information on the above individuals, a father and son.
