Hello, Are there any crew lists for the Royal Yacht that Albert and Elisabeth would spend time on? I think this is the one that family member worked on as either a Steward or a Stoker in 1890's approximately. Thanks

Kogaylene Ummm, I think you mean Victoria and Albert and regret no, muster lists, which would have provided the information you are seeking, were phased out in the late 1870s and replaced by ledgers, which, unfortunately, were, I gather, all destroyed circa 1940 by enemy action. If you haven't already done so you may be able download his service record for a small fee : http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/documentsonline/navy.asp If you have any queries regarding the document I will attempt to help, although changes between then and when I worked on similar records in the 1950s-60s sometimes mean that I can't always provide the answer.
