The Missing Friends Project at http://www.olivetreegenealogy.com/MissingFriends/ has added another set of extracts from Newspapers. The recent set is from the Boston Pilot, published in Boston Massachusetts. >From October 1831 to October 1921, the Boston Pilot newspaper printed a Missing Friends (Information Wanted) column with advertisements from people looking for lost friends and relatives who had emigrated from Ireland to the United States & Canada. Many travelling to Canadian ports went on to USA, but others remained in Canada. This project is extracting the names and other details of those who sailed into Quebec and other Canadian Ports of Arrival. Many of those who settled in America sailed to Canadian ports as the cost was much less. This new dataset of Missing Friends from the Boston Pilot is for those who were known to have arrived or settled in Quebec. Since ships passenger lists to Canada did not have to be archvived before 1865, these extractions will form an important piece in the gap in surviving ships passenger lists. Search for your ancestors in the Boston Pilot extracts, 1830-1840 at http://www.olivetreegenealogy.com/MissingFriends/ This is an ongoing project. Feel free to pass this message on to others - enjoy!
