I have the following info from zfamily Search on the death and burial in India if my Great Grand Uncle Henry Moorsom Pickhills.

birth:   1841   
death:   08 Apr 1866   
burial:   09 Apr 1866   Calcutta,​ Bengal,​ India

He enlisted on HMS Hastings at Liverpool on 14 October 1857

I was hoping someone could tell me how to find out his cause of death. I live in Australia.

His death is listed under Maritime deaths. Cause is listed as cholera. It looks as though he was aboard the ship Aracan.
