Has anyone obtained documents from the NA. Think I have found the discharge info re my GG grandfather. Trying to calculate the cost of obtaining this. Am I correct in thinking that the pouches contain all of the info regarding their sea going life plus personal info such as DOB, photo and names of ships etc. eel quite excited because I have been trying to find him for over three years. He appears to have gone AWOL with his wife and children between 1871 and 1901. Have him upto 1871 and again in 1901. Regards Libby
