Hi Anne, lets see if we can save you the cost of buying the death certificate.

On the actual image of the 1929 at sea death record that alviegal posted the transcription for, there is the following information:

Herbert Dearman, age 46, a portmanteau maker. British, born Middlesex.

Home address was 25 Harrow Road, Paddington. There is another address - 11 Grey Street, Bloemfontein and this has OFS after it. (Perhaps it was the address at his destination?)

Cause of death was Haemoptyses, secondary to pulmonary pthisisis.

Can you tell me where I can get a copy of the Death Certificate.

Anne

Are you sure this is him? He was a labourer going on to NZ.

I am trying to trace a great uncle. His name is Herbert Dearman and he was born in Hitchin in 1880. His father was James John Dearman b.1850 and his mother Lydia Bush b.1849. I can find no reference for Herbert after 1901 census until 1920 when he was on RMS Osterley bound for Sydney Australia. On further investigation I found a death notice for H. Dearman in 1929 which stated he died at sea on board Themosticles. Coincidentally these two ships were in the same fleet. Any help in finding out whether these two people are the same would be greatly appreciated.

Anne
