I found a great site for looking for lost seamen in the Whaling industry.
The site is newspapers from the 1800's. On the 2nd page of each paper you find more names then one knows what to do with of men who went to sea on Whalers. It's tedious looking thru the papers but there are so many names and interesting stories that the search is actually fun.
