They might possibly fit into the Marine Births on FindMyPast  :-\  They go back to 1837...

Hi Laura,
May I ask where your ancestors were on their way to, and if you know the name of the ship? :)

Regards

Leandra

Hi Leandra,

I haven't been able to find out any further information anywhere so unfortunately I have no idea where he travelled from or what the ship was called!!
