Hi Steven, I have been looking around to see if I can find what you wanted, I don't know if anyone can...... unless ships passengers lists were in the hands of private individuals....that does happen from time to time and people do post them. I found this blurb that is proof of that, but one never knows they could be somewhere, other passenger lists have turned up.......so good luck. Christine * Since no passenger lists were archived pre-1865 for Quebec, lists of vessels have been extracted from the Immigration Reports of the British Government but, please note, this does not include all of the vessels which entered these ports. Reports have been found for the ports of Quebec and St. John, New Brunswick (sometimes a few other ports in NB are included). Although Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and British Columbia are sometimes mentioned, rarely are any vessels named. * ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steven Lyday" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, May 11, 2002 1:36 PM Subject: [SCTCDN] Scottish Clearence Ships > Hi everyone, > > Many thks for the off list suggestions.
