The brig lydia h cole sailed from matamaoras to new york in 1864 carrying passengerss Marvin Newton Rogers, his wife and children. One of the children died, the ship was becalmed for many days, and the report I have is that the crew mutinied because there was a corpse on board. There may have been a trial. Do you have any information about this possible event or where I can research further? I cannot find mention of it it in the NYT index, although there are other mutinies reported. I am prepared to believe that it is perhaps a fabrication or an exaggeration, but I'd like to put this bit of family history to rest. Sincerely, Mary M. White
