Deserted or Discharged
« on: Friday 30 April 21 12:04 BST (UK) »
Hello

I cannot make out on the Particulars of Discharge column from this ship's crew list if Joseph Liggett deserted or discharged.  I am thinking because he and others with the same looking remark didn't sign that he deserted.  Can any of you wonderful people help out please.

Many thanks.
Lyn
