Hi Ian,

The Register of Seamen will be in the PRO in Kew, London.

If you are unable to visit yourself I can recommend a researcher called
Bob O`Hara who lives beside the PRO.
His website is at: http://www.searcher.dircon.co.uk/

There is a book called Records of Merchant Shipping and Seamen ..authors
K smith C. and M. Watts published
