Was that document at the National Archives a death record in 1885? It's just that Albert was still alive in the 1891 census.

No Kath. I think it is his Naval Records. I know it doesn't help with finding his death but at least it gave an actual date of birth.

My gut felling is that he did indeed die before 1911 and that "qualified" entry for Hetty to the Seaman Orphan school.

So sad that she was widowed after just a few years of marriage. I do hope that she did have a good life with her family.

Some of our ancestors had such a difficult time, it can make us so grateful now for any blessings that come our way!

Must sign off now and try to get some sleep.
