I have been trying to trace the death record of Captain Andrew Garrick without success. Is anyone able to advise if death records were raised for the other lost members of the crew?
I'm just supposing that all the death records may have been produced at the same time.
I also see no record of a memorial to Andrew at any cemetery.
