I just want to make sure I am making sense of this. William's father did die at sea according to my grandfather (William's son). James W sounds to be the father, then?

So you think Margaret Bridson and James W. Peake are the routes I should investigate? Or Robert William Peake? William's (my great grandfather), father died at sea. Also, if you can send me the photo you mention, that would be great, or any other info you may have. Thanks again!

I believe he may have been a boarder if both of his parents were deceased at that time. That's a lot of information, I'm not sure I quite understand the outcome, are you saying those were are possibilities but are actually not related?

He married twice. His first marriage ended when his wife and children died in New York City, USA during a flu epidemic at the turn of the century. Her name was Maggie O'Toole. He then married my great grandmother, Elizabeth Sattler in Buffalo, NY approximately in the early 1890's.

I do believe he is that boarder you mention, may make sense as he was traveling on ships so much. I appreciate your responses. I will follow up with the Bridson line and see if I can find out any more information.

It says grandson, but because of the back story I now know, could that have been false information? I only know that his Aunt briefly cared for him (I do not know her name). I have found many Bridson records, no marriage information related to the Peake surname. Could it have been likely he was born out of wedlock? I don't know how surnames worked in those situations at that time.

Yes, I have that information, but nothing about if this Richard Bridson was actually a relative or not. I appreciate the quick reply!
