Hi everyone, Many thks for the off list suggestions. So far no joy. Another note regarding these ships that I should have made in the original post. These 5 ships were contracted by Colonel Gordon to clear Benbecula and S. Uist of it tenants. The passengers arrived in rags and were completely destitute. The Canadian government paid passage for many of them to travel on to Hamilton. Do not know if this helps. It appears that Col. Gordon refused to reimburse Canada for the expenses incurred. Does anyone know if there is microfilm of Quebec or other newspapers for this period that might contain published passenger lists? TIA and Re, SPL >Hi All, > >Does anyone have access to or can point me to a resource that might >contain the passenger list to the following ships: > >Brooksby Lochboisdale 00-08-1851 Quebec 28-08-1851 >Montezuma Lochboisdale 00-08-1851 Quebec 30-08-1851 >Perthshire Lochboisdale 00-08-1851 Quebec 10-09-1851 >Admiral Lochboisdale 00-08-1851 Quebec 01-10-1851 >Liskeard Lochboisdale 00-08-1851 Quebec 18-10-1851 > >They all left the port of Lochboisdale, Isle of South Uist, Inverness, >Scotland in Aug 1851 with the destination of Quebec, Canada > >Look forward hearing from you. > >TIA and Re, > >Steven Lyday >[email protected] >
