Can anyone help find the crew records for the HMAT Port Lincoln during WW1. It was under contract for the Commonwealth Shipping to transport Army Personell and goods up till September 1917. I have been told that the ships crew records are held somewhere in Canada. If this is so does anybody know of an address I can contact. Am trying to trace my Grandfather who was on board the HMAT Port Lincoln. Roberta In beautiful sunny Queensland ----- No virus found in this message.
