Does anyone know why there were so many people from Ballyshannon emigrating to Saint John, NB in the 1840-1860 time period? Has anyone ever seen a book or article published on this event? I am trying to find more information both in Ballyshannon and Saint John about my GALLAGHER ancestors and I've noticed lots of people ffrom Ballyshannon in the Saint John records. I have found no trace of them in Ballyshannon records so if anyone has any suggestion, that would be great. Thanks. Joanne
