My neighbour is looking for a couple of dates for ancestors born at sea between Liverpool and Durban (SA) in the 1850's.
The father was Master Mariner (Captain?) Thomas Goble Chapman, and presumably took his family on these trips.
Would the births be registered in Liverpool (where the ship was presumably registered) or Durban?
I've suggested she contact the National Maritime Museum and the Liverpool records office, but any other suggestions most welcome
