marriage, and death were supposed to be issued by the national office in
the country of origin. In reality, many were issued in the jurisdiction
of arrival. If you uncover evidence that the shipping company maintained
reports from the ship surgeon, this could be a valuable document.
Surgeon's reports, when they exist, would list births and deaths on a

Another place to try is your local maritime museum.
The last maritime museum I went to had a huge
(10,000 names or so) list of people who had died
at sea over the years. It was a black marble
memorial. The one in LA even had the ships names
listed. (San Pedro, CA)
