Hi
I expect you got her details from here although the date born is 1886
 https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D8037957
Findmypast has a British Merchant Seaman record card type CR2  for her which lists the ships she was on from 1923 to 1939
Elizabeth Ann Jensen discharge no 666809
Can t find any record before or after those dates at the moment.

There are 2 more records on FindMyPast for 1921 and 1931 with a few more details (need to scroll up/down to get two images)
