Hi Stanmapstone, I think you are on to something there. The boys father (my 4th Great Grandfather) was a naval master who was court marshaled and wrongly dismissed from the navy. He spent his entire life trying to prove his innocence and overturn the court marshal, eventually, he met with a degree of success. The admiralty is certainly something I would associate with this family. I'll take a proper look at that link you posted as soon as I am able.

Thanks for the help
