Hello, I am presented with an issue I am not sure how to go about solving.
I have an ancestor named Edmund Duckworth (b. abt 1806 in England) emigrated to New York City in abt 1834. He married Catherine Beatty, born abt 1814 in Ireland, in New York City in 1835. Edmund was naturalized in the NYC Marine Court in 1838 and after that no record of him in the USA can be found. One of his sons, Samuel Ezekiel Duckworth was born in 1847 in Bogota, Colombia, and died in Brooklyn in 1917. His obituary stated that his father Edmund was United States Consul General to the United States of Colombia and later moved to Panama where he lived for some years. There are numerous records of his wife and his children traveling between Aspinwall, Panama, and NYC.
Sooo, my question is how would I go about finding a death record of Edmund Duckworth if he died in Panama? I am mainly interested in the birthplace, birth date, parentage, etc. of Edmund. If anyone has access to any Panama records, a look-up would be fantastic
. Otherwise, any ideas would also be greatly appreciated. Thank you,
Ben
