Thank you for doing this. I shall be eagerly looking forward to seeing these ships' lists, although my folks left Boyle, County Roscommon in 1847. My gr-grandfather, at age 16, went from Liverpool to Quebec and managed somehow to survive sailing aboard one of the "famine ships". What an ugly story that was! Anyway, a big thank you for all you are doing to inform us.
