Hi All, I am new to this list so if I make a error please forgive and let me know. I am looking for some information that possible you are able to help me with, I believe my gg grandfather came to America and sailed from Queensland to England to America. Was Queenstown the only port at that time for going abroad? The next big questions where did the majority of people who traveled to Queenstown come from? I am planning a trip to Ireland with 6 months ( if all goes as planned) and would like to enter my vacation plans on where my ancestors came from in Ireland. Any help or suggestions would be grateful. Thank you Chris Fitzgerald Evans - USA in Southern New Jersey. O Researching James Fitzgerald born 1828- Ireland Immigrated about 1873 Married Mary Unknown.
