Eileen Reid Marcil's book "The Charley-Man" is subtitled "A History of Wooden Shipbuilding at Quebec 1763-1893". The English version of the book appeared in 1995, I think the French one preceded it by a couple of years. It contains what is given as a complete list of all seagoing vessels built in the area. There is no BUDGET listed. I think it possible that the CHIN reference previously cited is incorrect as to the name. It has happened before with that source. The person doing the data entry to the CHIN website probably read "BRIDGET" as "BUDGET", which would be very easy to do with handwritten entries. As far as I am aware the material Marcil collected is not available on line as such. I do know that she has donated at least some of her research materials to various institutions.

Hi John I have uploaded the full page from the appro- books as supplied by Pete Owens , download it for best view. http://www.mariners-l.co.uk/list-images/budget.jpg If you examine the other hand writing by the same writer I am sure you will come to the same conclusion . The builder or owner may have intended to call this vessel Brigit, But She is named Budget on two separate continents long before the chin transcriber put it in a database. In my last post I stated that there was no Brigit registered in that period. There was however a Budget registered in Quebec in 1861. The important part for Edie is that the vessel with official number 37096 Brigit / Budget became Colombo in 1863 and came to grief in 1864.

Well there will be no doubt a copy will be at the British Library Museum and Bodelian Library at Oxford. I will enquire as to whether there is a copy in Tasmania or he mainland somewhere. I may be able to get it on interlibrary loan.
