Ellen...thank you for offering this search. Do you have an L'ESTRANGE people on either list? Janice Boston In a message dated 7/14/2007 7:57:44 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, enalibof@netscape.net writes: I have the Register of Deceased Persons at Grosse Ile at Sea and on Grosse Ile in 1847 which lists 8,308 victims and the companion volume 1847 Grosse Ile: a Record of Daily Events. Nearly 100,000 emigrants, mostly Irish, disembarked at Grosse Ile or the Port of Quebec that year. I also have A Farewell to Famine which lists the 847 people from Wicklow and Wexford who followed Fr Hore to New Orleans. I will do look-ups if you have more than a hunch that your ancestors might be among either group.

This was the quarantine island during the time of the famine where thousands are buried and where other members continued up the St. Lawrence to Montreal. Others came over the border, one very famous one was the Henry Ford family who settled into farming and then family went on to Detroit and into history. Recently the President of Ireland opened a famine park in Canada, I do not know if it was Montreal or Toronto.
