Thank you I knew he was a mariner but did not know the dates. It would be really great to know about his birth so I could find out his mothers name. I love finding everything out about are ancestry.

her baptism seems to appear in the Scilly Isles
born 21st October 1834 baptised the daughter of Henry and Jane 25th March 1835
