Hello Toni, Have you been through the FIBIS database here?:http://search.fibis.org/frontis/bin/                                             . There are hits for you there incl. the 1852 death notice for Captain Frederick Augustus Septimus Skey, "late commander of the barque SARAH". there - that's another vessel name for you. Regards,Adi   From: Toni Glasson via <mariners@rootsweb.com> To: "mariners@rootsweb.com" <mariners@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wednesday, September 9, 2015 7:23 PM Subject: [MAR] Help please Hello allI am researching the family of Thomas and Fanny Skey of Gloucestershire, UK.  They had 10 sons, seven of whom were  definitely mariners. Two, at least, died at sea - Joseph in 1834 and Samuel in 1848.  William (deliberately) never returned from a voyage to Tahiti, Octavius was apprenticed as a mariner at the age of 16, but seems to have run away to the USA, Frederick died in Madras (having apparently married bigamously) and Charles was transported as a convict to Tasmania. My questions are these:Was Henry, 1806-1850, also a mariner? And when did Thomas (a master mariner born 1803) die?  Was it at sea?I know that the following ships were associated with Skey master mariners and seamen. I'd be very grateful for any further information or hints for further research.  (I've looked at Lloyd's Lists)1834  The Harriet (Which Skey?)1835  The Albion arrives at Hastings from Sydney. Reg. 1835 London (Which Skey?)1849  John Campbell in trouble off Long Island (Which Skey?)Fortune (William)Sarah (Frederick)Montreal and Marianna (Samuel)Recovery, Favourite, Lady Louisa, Timothy (Charles.  These seem to have been whalers.)Thanks!Toni                         ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to MARINERS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
