    Default Death at Sea?

    Can anyone help advise please.

    Looking for a record of death for a George E Pawson, newspapers confirm his death at Cape of Good Hope. 28 August 1882 Aged 37 years.
    We are told he died at sea on a Ship traveling from China to the Cape of Good Hope, he was a silk merchant that lived in London.
    Ships name not know.

    Default Death Cape of Good hope

    Thank you, I have seen the listings on Find my Past but nothing for a death in 1882. George E Pawson died on 28 Aug 1882 his will states he was of the Cape of Good Hope, South Africa. Aged 37 years. Story is that he died on board and was buried in South Africa on arrival ?
