Lloyds register of shipping at your main library to start with to find the builder and the "Yard" number and builders number and then onto the local museums to there to ask if they keep plans of her, and then if not, onto the National Maritime museum to ask if they have any info.

The Dutch Maritime Museum in Amsterdam or The Hague may be worth a try.

Hi paul.
             I could be wrong but going by the pix the guys have posted what you are looking for looks similar to the
             Billings "Mercantic."
