Pembrokeshire Lookup Requests / Re: John Mathias, Slebech born?
« on: Sunday 24 October 10 20:49 BST (UK) »
I've just come across your request re Thomas Joshua/ he died in 1812 while on British ship Java in USA waters. Apparently he was pressganged while visiting his brother Henry in Bristol/ Bath area.
I've got more information somewhere; my mother's Godmother's husband was a naval historian and about 40 years ago he looked this one up as my mother and her Godmother were descendants of the Mathias family of Cartlett.
Let me know if you'd like me to look further
