Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Deciphering death certificate 1897.

Today I started wondering if it was a s with an accent above but when I visit the first document it makes me question it. I have started looking at naturalisation and seaman records. Thank you for taking the time to look :)

I think I need to try and find some immigration records and records in Malta. I haven't come up with anything yet but I will keep you posted. Thanks for the help :)

Will do :) Although I might need to slow down a bit. It's not the cheapest hobby :D

It was your great advice that made me look at the entire thing from a different angle. In doing so I found out that he was actually born 10 years earlier than I had previously estimated using his spouses age. Thanks again for all the helpful advise. The list of seaman goes on now. I have found out that John Doherty's father-in-law was a seaman too. My hunch is that if I find a ship name I will find all of them. That might be a bit much to hope for though. *fingers crossed*

Sorry I attached the wrong document. The new one is attached now  ;D It's the numbers under the years I am trying to work out.

I was on the hunt for a John Docherty after lots of pondering and frantic searching I realised I had his D.O.B wrong. With the amended date I found this but have no clue what the numbers mean  :-[

I finally found a marriage certificate for Francis and Mary. His mothers maiden name looks like it ends with a K on this one.... maybe :D
