It would be interesting to find where the SS Cara was in 1953, and to find the log book which should give details of the death. I think the best place for this is Greenwich maritime Museum---try searching via google. If you can get copy of log book it should give details of the incident. The museum are very helpful with specific queries like this.

Hi all can anyone help me? What would it mean on a death certificate when it says cause of death "killed or drowned"? It is a merchant seamans death certificate.
