Hi Pam
Thanks for your reply.
Yes have done the newspaper route, found a total of 11 Reports including Books, where this was reported.
The Captain, Lieutenant, Ensign and 3 Sergeants were named in one of the newspapers. Captain Dawson was mentioned in most reports, but no other names.

Hi Wimsey, Thanks for your reply.
Yes am aware of the Marriage Licence Document at the Essex Record Office. No I am not the author, but did get them to correct the document as they had an error with the dates, now corrected.
Yes am aware of the Book, History of the Cameron Highlanders, have downloaded PDF copy. Good source of reference, but only a few lines on the actual incident.
Thanks
Richard

I am fairly sure they will NOT be connected with the disaster, as the majority were buried at Landguard Fort, in the Fort's Burial Ground, so Burial should have been in the Fort's Register, which has vanished. However I am still interested in what you have found and will be investigating.
I have spent some time on Find my Past, but have missed your trick, so we learn something every day.
Thanks
Richard
