I'm not finding anything else that is of use. I'm assuming Elizabeth Crick died on the boat or on one of the islands?? Definitely no death notices that i can find.

Her mother's death certificate might state if she was deceased and or Joseph's second marriage cert. might state widower. Either one might give up something.

OP

This suggestion from Sparrett could be the way forward.  The marriage certicate should indicate if he was a widower or bachelor (!)

'The WEBSTER/LATTA  marriage certificate would tell a good deal about the man. $22 download upon electronic payment.

VIC  :Marriage
LATTA Elizabeth Bruce
WEBSTER Joseph
748 / 1875'
