Crew lists
Crew lists This page provides a summary of the crew list documents for a port and/or archive showing the ship and the range of years for which there are documents.
The ships for which there are documents are listed alphabetically, with their official number. If necessary, the port or archive concerned is shown, followed by the year range for which there are holdings of documents.
The range is usually the earliest and latest dates and does not imply that there is a continuous run of documents.
To the right of this are two links to the CLIP and MHA crew list indexes, which will give more detail of the holdings for a particular ship. The CLIP index shows holdings at TNA and guesses at holdings at NMM. The MHA index includes their own (extensive) holdings, and holdings at local archives.At the far right, there is also a further link to the CLIP data for that ship by official number.
Remember it is always important to check your sources - in this case by enquiring at the archive concerned, and/or using the MHA index.
Data sources
The sources of this information are:
- archives' catalogues, mostly online,
- The National Archives (TNA) Discovery facility, which combines TNA's catalogue with data from the defunct Access to Archive (A2A) project, and
- our own lists, drawn from our transcription of crew lists.
