Hi, I am also interested in this information. My Slattery family came from Tralee to Quebec around 1830. If they immigrated from Tralee, would they be recorded in this book?

This book seems to be available at The National Library of Ireland and the Kerry library as well as the New Zealand national library. >From what I have read so far of reviews it does not have passenger lists.
