As so many of my ancestors seem to have made a living on the sea, I'm wondering if there are crew lists anywhere? I don't know the names of the ships they would have been on, so I'm not sure how to trace where they would have sailed from or on what ship.
Suggestions warmly welcomed!

Are there lists of seamen?

It might be worthwhile contacting the National Maritime Museum. Information about what they have available is to be found at

Scroll down to Articles and Resources. Just below is a link to the National Maritime Museum whic"covers all aspects of British Seafaring fro the 14th to 20th century.
Hope this helps.
All the best for your research?
