Hiya Jsearch,

You shouldn't have too many problems finding this information. It's a case of knowing where to start but if you go to the right place and they don't know they should point you in the right direction. Have a look at
The Merseyside Maritime Museum Maritime Archives & Library -

Sheet No. 43 : Tracing Seafaring Ancestors in the Merchant Navy.
