I have a Video recording of a documentary, of the exhumation of three crew members bodies frozen in ice. An ortopsie found that they really had died from lead poisoning! and it was odds on that the rest of the crew suffered the same fate? The high tech tin food killed them off not the elements or being frozen in.
I have read the theory about the lead poisoning, although It probably was a combination of their fatigue, the cold, the starvation, all factors and odds against them.
For Lord Franklin, I believe he wanted one last chance to restore his popularity which had gone quit sour after the first failed attempt to find a Northern passage. He was really way too old to lead such expedition and should have stayed home. Thus saving his own and many more peoples souls. Our luck is that he went, now we have a wonderful song :0)
It is not at all likely that Lady Jane Franklin, his second wife, wrote this song. It is more than likely a broadside song, author unknown; there are several versions, information added to the verses as news came scantily back from th rescue missions. I have recorded the oldest known version on a CD, 'Get You'. Fred Johnston.

My dream is to produce a music video, Slideshow is OK, but live movie to the songs really rocks. Thanks for your comment.
