Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction for Merchant Seamen 1900-1914. My Great Grandad was a Seaman who according to family stories sailed with Shackleton. Where can I get this information please.

I'd also like to know about seamen from Rush 1800 - 1850's. Mary in Oz. ann atkinson wrote: > Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction for Merchant > Seamen 1900-1914.
