Diana, there are two men called John Ravenhill in the story of James Cook. One was a sailmaker who served on Endeavour. He was one of the older members of the crew who was 49 when he enlisted in 1768. He came from Hull, Yorkshire. He died on the voyage home and was buried at sea.
Another John Ravenhill, and his wife Jane, were left small bequests in the Will of Elizabeth Cook. It is thought that this was John Ravenhill who was a magistrate and lived in Clapham, where Mrs Cook lived out her days.

Angela, I have looked through the names of all of the men who sailed with Captain Cook on his three voyages of exploration. I did not find anybody named Norman Dale, or with the surname Normandale. Sorry.

Enquiring re John Ravenhill, sailmaker on the Endeavour. My fathers christian name was Ravenhill & he was named after his grandmothers surname. Do you have any details on John Ravenhill please.

Please could you let me know if there was a Normandale on any of Captain Cook’s voyages. Many thanks,

My family (Watson) have a Resolution and Adventure medal as a hierloom. I would like to know why. One possibility is a Watson among the crew but I don't see the name in the crew lists. Any suggestions?

Clive, I have checked the list of all the names of the crew and marines who served on Captain Cook's three voyages. I must inform you that there was nobody named Hipkin (or any surname similar to that) who sailed with Cook on his voyages.

Hello, could you kindly check if Richard Hipkin was a member of the crew on any of Captain Cook's voyages.

Charles, I am pleased to confirm that a Thomas Bean served as an AB seaman in Discovery, the companion vessel to Captain Cook's ship Resolution, on his third voyage of exloration (1776-1780).
He was 23 years old when he enlisted in 1776, and was living in the town of Deptford. That is all the information that is known about Thomas Bean, have you any information about him?

Hi John,
Looking for confirmation that Thomas Bean was aboard for Cook's third trip?
Any help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Charles

Alison, thank you for your enquiry. I do not think that the sand blow was given a name by Captain Cook. When he sailed past that point on 17th May 1770, he was sailing two leagues from the shore -about 5 miles, and would not have seen such a small geographical feature. I have checked the journal of Captain Cook and he does not mention the feature in his day's report. And finally, you can see the list of all the crew on the Endeavour on this website at

There was nobody on board named Carlo. It looks as if the sand blow was given a name long after Cook had sailed past this point.
