Dear Peter,
I am so happy to hear from you, I have been searching for relatives of Fred Henry for a few years. I have Alfred Thomas' death certificate, he died onboard the Polam on the 12th May 1879, off the coast of Haiti. I would love to discuss more with you and send you some copies I have of crew lists for various voyages of his. My family has a few stories about what happened which I would be very keen to compare with your Aunt's. I will send you my email via personal message and look forward to talking with you.
It has made my evening seeing your message on here!
Best wishes,
Elissa
