John, b.1816, Walter, b. 1805, Jamesc1800 ?, and Alexander Joss,b ?Banff, Scotland

Journal by Nanagram

Their parents were John Joss/Joass and Isobel, nee Riddoch.
I am trying to find who they married, I have found merchant navy LDS records for them. But it dosent tell me there parents names.
Also history has it that JOHN sailed successfully out of Hartlepool and finally settled there as a shipowner and died 1877.
ALEXANDER, also sailed and eventually gave up the sea and became a coastguard near Aberdeen, .
WALTER, sailed out of Newcastle, but died abroad after serving abroad ship during the Crimean War.
JAMES, sailed successfully as a whaler and sealer off New Zealand. His life is well documented up until his disappearance in 1846, aboard his brigantine, "The Rovers Bride" in the Pacific, ( Samoa).
I would be so thrilled if someone could find the link to connect all these men and sisters together.
I have some research done but if I could get there dates of marriage etc I would be be able to connect them to our family in New Zealand.

Hi Nanagram, have you made any progress on Joass/Joss family. I'm descendent from James Joss 1800 Banff Scotland. I've been searching for years with no luck.
