If someone died when travelling from Uk to USA (or vice versa), were would the registration be carried out (time I'm interested in is around 1890) |

If you register at the national archivist web site that went online yesterday you will ne able to search the deaths at sea index. It is free to do a search but costs to see the actual page. George |

David, The first time I tried searching the site it came up with nothing. I then went into Deaths for a certain period and was successful. Don't forget that the date of registration could have been ages after the actual death. If you do find anything, I should be interested to know whether you are able to print the page. Everytime I try my PC crashes! Jill |

Had another look, realised it only goes up to 1890, my missing person died between 1893 and 1900 |

Tracey, The images on the National Archivist site are actual scanned images of the originals. |
