DNA identifications of three 1845 Franklin expedition sailors from HMS Erebus
DNA identification of remains of three members of the 1845 Franklin expedition. • All three sailors died at Erebus Bay, King William Island. • Deaths of two men previously identified occurred at the same sites at Erebus Bay. • All five sailors identified to date through DNA analysis are from HMS Erebus. A program of DNA analysis initiated in 2013 as a means of attempting to identify skeletal remains of members of the 1845 Franklin Northwest Passa…
“Some very hard ground to heave”
Since 1859, attempts to resolve the question of the identity of a sailor from the 1845 Franklin expedition whose body was found that year on the south shore of King William Island have been complicated by contradictory evidence found with the skeleton. Documents found with the body implied the man was Harry Peglar, Captain of the Foretop, but the clothing indicated the man held a domestic rating, a steward or officer’s servant. This paper examine…

Identification of a senior officer from Sir John Franklin’s Northwest Passage expedition
Remains of Franklin expedition sailor discovered in 1993 identified via DNA. • Genetic study reveals place of death of Captain James Fitzjames, HMS Erebus. • Captain James Fitzjames died less than 80 km from where the ships were deserted. • New insights into cannibalism on the 1845 Franklin Northwest Passage Expedition. Arctic Canada’s King William Island and Adelaide Peninsula have preserved the unidentified skeletal remains of many of the 105 s…
DNA identification of a sailor from the 1845 Franklin northwest passage expedition
The 1845 British polar expedition in search of a northwest passage through the Canadian Arctic under the command of Sir John Franklin resulted in the greatest loss of life event in the history of polar exploration. The names of the 129 officers and crew who sailed and died on the catastrophic voyage are known, but the identification of their skeletons found scattered along the route of their attempted escape is problematic. Here, we report DNA an…
