Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 4 Send Message	I am looking for information on Mariner Abraham Murcott who lost his life during the Great Storm on 1703. He was aboard The Namur and all lives were lost. I would appreciate any information about him especially his parents names. Kind regards, Norma in Australia.

	Do you have any idea where he came from? If you know of his decendants where were they born? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Storm_of_1703 Are you sure he was aboard The Namur? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Namur_(1756)

	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Storm_of_1703#Thirteen_ships_lost_in_the_Royal_Navy Doesn't look like the Namur was lost in the Great Storm.
