Earlier, you had told me that your uncle had worked at the ship yard. Since we have been unable to find any evidence of the ships he was on having been attacked, damaged, or sunk, it is possible that he contracted something related to his work at the shipyard. There is a lot of information around about asbestos related health problems for people who worked at ship yards, especially in the engine rooms.
I thought that sort of thing took a while to show up, but given the information on lung related illness, this is something to consider. Might be totally unrelated to the ships he was on.

PS: I re-sent the request to the Archives for the information I was trying to get for you. Keep you posted.
