I know that his has married Isabella Shand in 1883 in Tynemouth, Northumberland, England.(seccond wife)

Så vidt jeg har kunne finde ud af, var Fritz Anton Jensen 1. styrmand ombord på SS Burswell.

Om SS Burswell's forlis kan man finde følgende på nettet:

The British cargo steamer BURSWELL was posted missing, lost all hands. She had passed Dover on 06/12/1885 for Genoa, with a cargo of coal.

Her kan du læse mere, og se søforhørsrapporten, hvori der er spekulationer om, hvorvidt skibet var for tungt lastet ved afgang:
