I really appreciate these details. Re the ships, I tried earlyier to get info on the internet, but absolutely nothing comes up, certainly not passenger lists. (I actually have a list with my ancestors' names on it, but the name of the ship isn't indicated.) In any case, I'll try again, this time typing in 'Fort William' as well. Regards, Donna
