"American Merchant Navy"

[Shellsbells]

Hi there 

Does anyone know where (or if) there are any records held for American Merchant Seamen between 1910-1927

Although my great grandfather was British he became an American Citizen.

Many thanks

Shell

Thanks Nutkin

I did come across this address too but I think the "Coast Guard" bit threw me! 


Right, better get my typing head on and do a letter.


Thanks again
