I'm trying to find the 2 brothers of my gg grandfather, William Lash Heyward who was born in 1817 in the London area. William is known to have 2 brothers, names unknown, who were also ships captains or Mariners of some status. William worked on the Indian trade routes, and had lost contact and the where-abouts of his 2 brothers. The brothers may have settled anywhere in the world. The father of these boys (and one unknown daughter) was Thomas Heyward; mother's name unknown. I'd love contact with anyone who has 'the sea' in their line of Heywards Thankyou. Rosie
