I was surfing around today and found this site. My interest in the ship stems from my great uncles death aboard the ship in 1903. His name was Thomas W. Sawyer, rate: Landsman. He was probably no more than 20 when he died on board of appendicitis. He is buried at Arlington and they list his date of death as 11-04-03.
I assume that the ship was at sea, and it is my intention to access the ships log for this date which would confirm the location of the ship and also that he died on board on that day?
