Ordering Copies of Crew Agreements (Crew Lists)

To place an order for copies of crew agreements from the Maritime History Archive's collection simply send the following information to mhares@mun.ca.*

Vessel Name
Official Number (if known)
Years to be copied. (Crew agreements are filed by the year in which the voyage terminated in a British port).
Indicate whether you want the entire agreement copied or just the particular pages where an individual's name appears.
Please include your name and full mailing address.

Once we receive your order, we will provide you with an estimate for the cost of the search and scans. Crew agreements and official logbooks can contain anywhere from 4 to 20 plus pages per voyage. Scanned images are sent by email. Each JPG image is scanned at 300 dpi.

Retrieval and processing fee

$40.00 (CAD) minimum fee. This fee provides retrieval for a maximum of two years of crew agreements for one vessel (or two vessels for one year). The charge for each additional vessel/year is $20.00.
