I am posting this messagae again in hopes that someone can help me as there was no reply to my earlier one, maybe it is because there is no way I can find out these details. "Hi all, can anyone tell me where I can access a seaman's ticket register here in NSW Australia around the years 1850's and what information it would contain. In other words something that shows a crew member's agreement with the ships owner that he employed to sail on. I have my great grandfather Charles Smith born in Norway about 1833 and he settled here in Sydney New South Wale Australia. The following are possibly the ships he served on John Omerad 1855 Camilla 1859 and 1860 There are others but are less likely to be him." Thank you Robyn
Have you tried the Mariners List which deals with crew and ships not emigration and immigration as this list does. mariners-request-l@rootsweb.com I hope I got that right. wilf Tarbet in SW ON Canada ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robyn Munro" <robynm@mysoul.com.au> To: <THESHIPSLIST@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, March 05, 2010 8:01 PM Subject: [TSL] SEAMAN'S REGISTER >I am posting this messagae again in hopes that someone can help me as >there was no reply to my earlier one, maybe it is because there is no way >I can find out these details. > > "Hi all, can anyone tell me where I can access a seaman's ticket register > here in NSW Australia around the years 1850's and what information it > would contain.
