HMS 'Monarch', 1842
« on: Wednesday 15 March 23 21:22 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone point me at the log book of HMS 'Monarch' for 1842?

A relative of mine, William Nic(h)olson, died aboard this vessel on 21 April 1842. I'd be interested to see what the log says about him (if anything).

See https://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=572906.msg7424273#msg7424273 for the background to this.

Thank you!

One for the list when I can make it to Kew.
