Brian, the Albert Palmer you game me details of sounds like the right one even though it states born 1873 Ramsey and he was born at sea as they are the names of the vessels that I was told he sailed on. His year of birth has always varied between 1870/1873. The CD that has this info is it on general sale and if so what is the price? He was also a crew member on the "The Majestic" in 1903 when the master, George Brew ,was taken ill during the journey and he was taken to Stranraer hospital where sadly he died. Through the kindness of Keith Wright (George Brew's grandson) I now have a copy of the report which was in the Ramsey Courier 14.8.1903. but have never been able to find any other info about this vessel which had been chartered at that time by a Doctor Rowan from Derby.
