MUGRIDGE William; YKS,ENG; 1864 Would be grateful for any information or advice as to how to go about answering the following research questions. Master Mariner, William Mugridge died 'At Sea' on 16 September 1864. I eventually found him buried in Scarborough, Yks. I presume that his home port was Littlehampton as that was where his young family lived. He died intestate and the only documentation of his death are Letters of Administration granted to his wife Mary Ann. Effects £1500. (1500 pounds sterling) Three obvious questions arise from this mystery - 1) Cause of Death. Was the Ship lost off this treacherous coast, was his death of natural causes or maybe an 'inboard' accident? 2) What was the name of the Ship and which Shipping Line? Could it have been the local Sussex 'Robinson' fleet? 3) In 1871 Littlehampton Census Mary Ann describes herself as 'Ship Owner' but when she died five years later in 1876 there was no mention of a Ship in her will. Effects £600. (600 pounds sterling) Have been trying to find the answer to these two questions for nearly 20 years. My research efforts at Kew were not what you might call a success! Pleased to hear any ideas, theories and especially solutions. Elizabeth. mugridge@cancom.net Elizabeth Mugridge in Ontario. Researching Mugridge in Sussex Ridge in Northamptonshire

DANIEL, Edward St. John, V.C.; GLS (Bristol), ENG; 1837-1868 I am looking for further information on Edward St. John DANIEL, V.C., of Clifton, Bristol, whom I believe may have been my gg grandfather. I have so far established the following: - Born 17th January 1837, Clifton, Bristol - Joined Royal Navy (Naval Brigade) as a Midshipman (promoted to Lieutenant 1859). Served on HMS Diamond and HMS Shannon (under Capt. William PEEL). - Awarded Victoria Cross (one of the first) for action in the Crimean War (aged 17) at Sebastopol, Battle of Inkerman, and assault on Redan (1854-55). In the London Gazette of 24th February 1857, in which the VC award was first announced, the name is given, in error, as Edward St. John DANIELS (this was corrected on 13th March 1857). Also saw action in the Indian Mutiny (1857-58) - Left Navy in 1861, but seems to have rejoined in 1868? (Possibly married in this interval - perhaps in Bristol or surrounding area). - Killed in action, 20th May 1868, in Maori uprising, Hokitika, New Zealand, age 31. Buried in unmarked grave, Hokitika cemetery. --- Our family tradition (for which we have never had solid evidence) is that an ancestor was awarded a VC in the Crimean War at the Battle of Inkerman, and as a result the male descendants have ever since been given the middle name INKERMAN. The only possible candidate is Edward St John Daniel - obviously I am looking to be able to prove the family connection. I am currently arranging to chase up civil registrations of births and marriages, but if anyone has any information that could help me to narrow down my search (or any other information), I would be very grateful. Our family eventually settled in Devizes, Wiltshire, and Bath, Somerset..

HEWITT Desmond; NIR>CHS,ENG; 1921-1972 Desmond HEWITT was born 24/8/1921 in Culcavy, in the District of Hillsboro, in the Union of Lisburn in County Down. His mother is Lucinda HEWITT, the fathers name is not given on the Birth Certificate. His Marriage Certificate states his name as Desmond James HEWITT and he married Mildred Fowler HUGHES in Chester in 1947. The family believe his mother and father never married and that his father left for New Zealand before his birth. Lucinda died shortly after his birth and he was brought up by his Aunt, Florence Elizabeth HEWITT. Can anybody researching the name HEWITT throw some light on this?
