Family lore has it that in about 1842, the ship on which our Irish (Ulster) ancestors (surname Moncrieff) sailed to Quebec struck rocks east of Quebec City, and the passengers had to bail water to reach Quebec City. All of their posessions were lost. I know there were many shipwrecks in the St. Lawrence at this time, so I wonder if someone knows of any documentation of these accidents? I have been scanning the shipping articles in the Montreal Gazette of the time, but so far found no mention of it there. Donna
