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.

In the 1950's would it have been common practice to bury the dead at sea during a voyage?

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.

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.
