    Default Master Merchant Seaman

    Hi I'm really new to this so don't really know what I'm doing so please be patient with a newby. I'm looking for a William Cardno born 1831 in Aberdeen. He appears to have been a Master in the Merchant Service, however I cannot find any details of this, ie. Certificates. I have looked on both Find My Past and Ancestry but can find nothing. Could someone please point me in the right direction. Thank you.

    Possibly a difference between birth and birth registered dates ?

    or the old fib to join up earlier ?

    Hi Sharon,

    No need to actually, leave.

    Keep the account open and look in now and again,
    even with your daughters help.

    Not all posts get replied to straight away and
    you never know what will turn up or when.

    It truly is worth staying on even if not being an
    active member.

    Just pop in take a look and update only when needed.

    Wishing you all the best either way.

    Regards,

    Keith.

    Thanks Keith
    Actually any Member that chooses to leave (not post) unless he /she specifically askes to be removed from the database,will remain an active Member as such,so Sharon will still be in the position to post whenever she chooses Their account stays active until removed by Admin!
    Cheers
