Hi,
Within the records set "Deaths at Sea, 1781-1968", on FindMyPast there is the following:
Name: John Campbell
Birth Year: 1827
Death Year: 1886
Vessel Name: Excelsior
Archive References: BT156 & BT157
Whether this is him I don not know, as I do not have access to the documents at present.
These records are on ancestry as well under "UK, Register of Births, Marriages and Deaths at Sea, 1844-1890". There looks to be three records here. Was he resident in Swansea?
Hope this helps.
Kind regards
David
