Union Steam Ship Personal files of Engineers and Electricians

Descriptive Data

Archives IdentifierAF013Date RangeCirca 1939-Circa 1970DescriptionThese files created between about 1939 to 1970, contain career and some personal information on seagoing engineers and electricians, some who joined as early as 1907, but predominantely covering 1950s to 1970s. It appears that the files were first collated for those still working about 1939-1940, some using employment cards [Series AF011], sheets from earlier registers [Series AF009] and other documents. They include correspondence, application forms, medical test results, testimonials and curriculum vitae, previous service, records of leave, promotions and qualifications, confidential reports on performance and conduct, and employment cards. Sometimes the forms record personal information such as date and place of birth, height, weight, chest and waist, marital status, and the correspondence covers immigration issues.
