My Great Grandparents Both Born IN Ireland C 1848 51 James Kavanagh Father Patrick He was Deceased by Dec 1871 and Elizabeth Smith Born IN King S CO...

I have all the family info from that date - their 7 children and descendants. What I also don't have is death record for James Kavanagh. His youngest child was born Oct 1886 and her father is shown as deceased - obviously around 9 months earlier. Family rumour has it he "˜drowned at sea' supposedly en route to America. No other info on him.
