My great-grandfather was a sailor on a Norwegian ship called the Maryetta until he jumped ship in Yarmouth Canada about June 1909. He wasn't Norwegian but German.
Does anyone know where I can find a crewlist from that time period? Is this information available online? If not, is this information available at the Norwegian Maritime Museum? I know the ship name, type, captain's name and the year he was on the ship.
I am looking for crew lists too. My grandfather was a Norwegian sailor who came to England but we think was sailing on ships out of Norway in the 1870s (specifically the ship Atalanta). I contacted the Norwegian Maritime Museum. They were very helpful but did not have the crew list that I was after. They suggested that I contacted Stavanger Maritime Museum as this was the home port of the ship. I have yet to do this but when I do, I will let you know if I have any success.
Where can I find crewlists?
