John, Is that William Bland or William Bland Thompson? Is there are occupation for either of the Williams on the marriage cert. Do you know if William was a sailor or a passenger on the ship? Maureen

William Thompson was a seagoing fireman (boiler stoker). William Bland was a blacksmith. I have seen the 1881 census data Thanks. John

Hi everybody Ive got a problem William Thompson married 1898 (aged 26) Sunderland, died 1905 Buenos Aires Argentina on board ship and is buired there. First his ship records say he was born Runham, I cant find his birth. Second does anyone know where I could get a death cert for him. Thanks John
