We will be using the Education page to link to ongoing and final outputs of the Civil War Bluejackets Project, an easy "one stop shop" to find out what has been produced as a result of your efforts. The links below also include some of the outputs from our 2020 small pilot project, which examined muster rolls from a handful of vessels to assess the potential value of a wider and more ambitious project.
