Hello Hugh,

Thank you so much for your reply, I was thinking of going to The National Archives tomorrow morning to look at some of Milly's suggestions so I will order the ship articles of agreement as you suggest I did not know there was such a document.

You have been very helpful, thank you again.

Hi there, this is a tall order due to the date this was first posted, I was looking for any information on someone I believe to be my 2nd cousin a Leslie Cooper who died on a ship aboard the Glen Tilt I happened to stumble across this post I was wandering if anyone had anyway of containing the original poster as they too are related.

Thanks
