Trying to find descendants of James Taylor (b. ABT 1824 in Crail, Fife) and Christian Gay (b. 1826 in Crail, Fife). Children (all born in Crail) whose descendents I'm trying to trace are William Taylor (b. 30 May 1848), Jane Anne Taylor (b. 3 Oct 1848), Alexander Taylor (b. 10 Sep 1851), Crawford Taylor (b. 28 Nov 1854) who married her cousin James Gay and had 5 children. The above James Taylor was Captain of the schooner Albion and was lost at sea in early 1856. I can't find his death in the Scottish Statutory Records which started in 1855. Does anyone know the procedure for registering deaths at sea? |
