interpretation of information on seaman's ticket

[Churchie]

I've given up in despair. And it's a bit far for me to get there on the train!

If any kind soul ever gets access to the relevant info, this is my man's listing. His name was Raphael Church.

"His earlier ticket for out in 1845 reads S 3006,64,11,  64,1,6 and home in 1846 reads S 3006,64,11  64,18,5"

Back to the grind....

Yesterday I viewed the 1852 film for voyages of ships registered in London commencing with 'An' and no Anglesey... aaarrrrghhh.

From what I understand the crew manifest and agreement was to be lodged at the ships port of registration upon departure. Not so here it seems so my next option is to get the equivalent 1853 film to see if the Anglesey's return to London was documented.

Either that or the documents were lodged at the actual port of departure, which I think was either Portsmouth or Graves End?

I could be wrong here and I'm sure someone will put me right if I am, but I thought the majority of the agreements are at TNA?

All very confusing isn't it? I've found it quite difficult to unpick the information but I'm getting into it all now and rather enjoying the challenge.

Good luck to those still searching.
I started this thread three years ago and confess that I did not get much further dispite a couple of visits to TNA to look for ships. There are just too many documents.
This discussion may have inspired me to try again
I just wish  there was some way we could start putting together some sort of ship index. It will probably come one day - but too late for us now

I do believe that is the case. The film I hired from the SDA is of the documents at your National Archives.

Oops, sorry Darryl!
