Still Looking Depends if the ship is in British Waters when the event takes place, but I am fairly sure that births and deaths aboard ship have to be repoted at the next port of call anyway, no matter where that is. OC |

Ah, well, depending on where the ship was when he died, it may be in the Overseas section. OC |

He may not have died where you think he did - and deaths have to be registered where they occur. Do you have any details of the accident? If an inquest was held, then the death may be registered later than you think, although it should appear as an extra entry in the correct quarter - hope that makes sense? OC |
