Tracing my grandfather Axel Peterson

[litherland lass]

Axel Martin Peterson born around 1881 and was from Finland. He was a merchant seaman. He married my Gran on 15th Sept 1909 in Liverpool. My mum Ines Peterson was born 1914 and her sister Ellen 1916. Between 1916 and possibly 1919, The deaths at sea register give a death on 26/7/1919 of an Axel Peterson but his address being 1 Smith Street Salford.
From the records I have traced on my family 4 Bartholomew Place Roscoe Street Liverpool was his last known address.
If the death at sea is my grandfather, the ship name was the Notanda. So I am trying to find out who owned this ship and how I could possibly find out when he worked for that company.

Marriage shows him as Axel Martin Petterson.

What is his fathers name on the marriage cert?

1911 census  - he is still 28 occ mariner

Presumably you are already aware that your grandmother - Catherine Thomas - was previously married in 1897 to Axel Gustaf Mattson b Sweden

The births for Ines & Ellen were both registered as Petersen - not Peterson

Thank you all for the additional information. Re spelling of Peterson and even my Grans first married name Mattson, Looking through cards/ letters there have been various spellings of my grandfather’s surnames. Matson, Mattson, Petterson, Pettersen, Peterson and Petterson. My mum’s marriage lines was Peterson.
