	From The National Archives website: Royal Naval Seamen (1873 - 1923) You can now search and download the service registers of more than 500,000 seamen who joined the Royal Navy between 1873 and 1923. http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/documentsonline/royal-navy-service.asp I think they are £3.50 each.
