Hi,
I know this is an old thread, revived and now getting old again but you have to try these things sometimes.
Was Margaret Vass who 'married' Stephen White on Tristan Da Cunha in a ceremony by an unauthorised official the same person as Margaret ANDERSON who married Stephen White in Ore on 05 July 1827?
They left Tristan Da Cunha in 1826 so seems very plausible.
I'm researching a man who is sometimes called LIND and sometimes ANDERSON, he deserted from a whaler in 1839 and raised a family on Tristan Da Cunha. Which of course is 13 years after Stephen and Peggy left but there are a few mysteries about him so I'm looking into everything even if to eliminate false trails.
Would love to hear from anyone who has researched this before me. Especially, if it is so, why she used that surname?
Irene
