A FREE site - I have relied on for years NOTE: the left site - watch out for ancestry options http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/tocan1850-1864.shtml The following is the 'two heads are better than one' and many more that much better ********************************* Close cousin and I working our Irish - one family at a time [Have 6 or 7] [We had been told our Gr-Gm and her brother b. Hamilton Ontario Have now discovered a Hamilton QUE] DOT: I think you are probably right that he came from Derry in the north. I did in fact find an entry that looks most interesting for a William O'Neil, age 23, from Derry, passenger on the ship "Mauritius" in 1854 to Quebec from Londonderry. ME: Really promising - Think the Ireland to Canada list archives Are going to be a help also - DOT: No other O'Neils were listed with him, nor were there any Burns or Byrnes with him. But this man is the right age to have been our guy and if---big if---his wife Mary was in fact with him on that trip but somehow got left off the list, it would be great to know the ship he came on. Gramma said that Mary gave birth to Hugh practically on arrival in Canada. And since we know Hugh was born at the end of January 1854, maybe this was our man after all. They might have gotten off the ship at Quebec City or at Montreal. If we can help anyone here - Holler - Mimi Taylor
