Alberto: Ships that early are hard to find..no photos, but sometimes paintings. I have had good luck with a British source who has a great collection of ships and material. He was able to help me and e mail all information and a picture. It cost 10 pounds, and he will take credit cards. It was worth it for me. You can e mail and ask about a ship and he will tell you if he has any information before you order.

All, Just wanted to make anyone interested aware of the following list. I am currently subscribed and the group is absolutely wonderful and unbelieveably resoureful. It's a very busy list so you may find you have to post twice to get a response (3 digest mode mails per day minimum). They can answer questions on emmigration ship descriptions and point you to pictures mainly but some people do have access to manifests. Hope someone finds this useful.

Hi.... In light of the fact that the query board being used on County Westmeath Genealogy (IGP) has gone down I would like to add a surname registry so researchers can find each other. The url for the website is: http://www.rootsweb.com/~irlwem2/ If you would like to add your SURNAME please send me an email with: Surname from Westmeath Location and time frame if known. General time frame like 1800's ok. Your name and email address. I don't need ancestors first names - just the surnames. Thanks! Christina [email protected]

Hi there.... I have just learned that the people whose message board system I was using on the Westmeath Genealogy (IGP) website are ending this resource. I am putting the queries here so everyone can see them. If you wish to respond to a query please email directly to the person rather than replying to this list as the people may not be subscribers. We do have a surname registry on the website which I think does a good job of helping people find other researchers. I apologize for this problem.
