Member Since: May 2009 Posts: 303 Send Message	http://www.dannyhowell.net/1996/05/gauntlett-family.html I have just found this online, it explains the sad demise of Mark and his wife Muriel but I hope those of you who have helped me find it of interest as you were spot on. May they both RIP.

Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 12,337 Send Message	What a fascinating piece of your family history, you are so lucky! How tragic for poor Muriel and Mark. So the 1901 above is not her and her family.

Member Since: May 2009 Posts: 303 Send Message	Alviegal, yes this was a very interesting piece of research into my family tree and I very much appreciate your interest. I googled Muriels name and ship and that article came up. Almost everything mentioned ties in with what I know already.
