[TSL] Still Looking for a "Death at Sea" in 1887 (from Maine)
"Betty" <bbffrrpp@comcast.net> on 02/18/2010

Hello,

Just a quick reminder that I've wondered for a long time what happened to 
John KIDDER during 1887.    The "KIDDER book" only says he "loved the sea 
and died at sea in 1887."    He could have been anywhere in the world, 
partly because his son had migrated to the Hawaiian Islands.     John always 
lived along the Maine / New Brunswick border   (from an 1830's birth). *

Betty         (near Lowell, MA, USA)


P.S.    On the same large branch of my family-tree I have a 
gr-gr-grandfather from the Isle of Man and Liverpool, England, who was at 
least a Mariner from that area.    His daughter reported him on her marriage 
certificate in Nova Scotia in 1879 that he was a Master Mariner, but I have 
not found a basis for that.



*
(He was the older brother of my gr-gr-grandfather, Joseph KIDDER, of 
Princeton, Maine, who had fought in the Civil War - in Florida - was 
seriously injured but returned to Maine to marry and have children.    They 
had a younger brother, "Cal, Jr.," who like his father was a woodsman.)
