Hi everybody, I need your help to find some information about an english brig (or schooner) named "Thomas", lost in 1829, near South Africa. I would like to know if there are some death certificate for men lost at sea? Thank you in advance if you can help me. CV

Hi Regret death certificates were not introduced on British vessels until July 1837, and even then, from observations made on the Mariners List, they were very patchy, but see the leaflets produced by the National Maritime Museum : <http://www.rmg.co.uk/researchers/library/research-guides/general-introduction/research-guide-a3-tracing-family-history-from-maritime-records> or the National Archives : <http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/looking-for-person/bmdatseaorabroad.htm> Paul On Fri, 16 Aug 2013 18:09:14 +0200, "C.
