Hi Everyone

Thanks jack for all this information - I had looked at some of the entries you have given me but couldn't find a connection with the McMillan side but seeing all the entries from the census I can see the connection. Thank you.

Hug -Thanks for the information re picture of the Golden Fleece.

William Hodgeson master baker and steward - would he have served his apprenticeship as baker and then went to sea.

Emanday the number of the ship is 62089 Golden Fleece Vessel lost 271285 - Drowned.

Quite Sad.

Carol

The Maritime History people on http://www.mun.ca/mha/ only have Crew Lists and Agreements for Golden Fleec 62089 up to 1883. However, that still might include your husband's GGG Grandfather's details if he was already serving on her then.

The National Archives do have the ones for 1884 on reference BT 99/1419 and a quotation for a copy can be requested here http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/cata ... ssmethod=0 by clicking on the "Request This" button.
