Subject: [MLN] Ship "Morvia" 1886

Hello,
I have just received the death certificate of an ancestor who was a boatswain on the "Morvia." He was aged 32 and apparently died on 6 October 1886 of "natural causes" on board whilst on a voyage from Iceland to Granton. The death was registered December 31 1886 at Davidsons Mains, Parish of Cramond.
Am I likely to find any more information regarding this particular voyage of the "Morvia"? I would be grateful for any suggestions of where to look.

Regards,
Margaret.
