✨Wiki Wednesday✨ - British Merchant Seamen
You may want to search merchant shipping records if you find one of the following terms in records about your ancestor: captain, mariner, seaman, mate, boatswain (bosun), or super cargo. I was able to find a painting of a ship that one of my ancestors was Captain of, by finding a headstone referring to him as Captain and searching for info in these records ☺️

Trying to find a relative who was a merchant seamen from the USA plying his trade to the UK around 1912.
Research Wiki hasn't given me any clues where to look.
His name is Kenneth Alderson Ward (ID: MBQF-J2V)
Any help would br gratefully appreciated.

How do you know he was a merchant seaman at that time? The 1911 census says an electrical engineer. The 1920 record says an electrician.
Btw you would get more attention by creating a new discussion rather than adding to an old one.
