	This would appear to be him in 1861 - for reference. Are you looking for his family details or to find out about his death at sea, or both? Ooopps - 1861 census already posted above so I have deleted the details. Just to add that at that time he was a Printer at the Carpet Works and living at 7 Wakefield Old Bank. His father was a Stone Mason. Now to find what he was doing at sea in 1875?? Dea x
