So, the following applies to both USA and Canada -- There are a few surviving passenger lists which were kept by shipping agents in the originating country. The Passenger Books of J & J Cooke, Shipping Agents gives sailings from Londonderry to Quebec, St. John New Brunswick, New Orleans Lousiana and Philadelphia Pennsylvania from 1847 to 1871. These are online at http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/jjcooke.shtml There are other resources specific to each country (USA or Canada) but without knowing which (if either) of those 2 countries you want, listing them would be a lot of work :-) Lorine -- Lorine McGinnis Schulze * Olive Tree Genealogy (Ships Passenger Lists) http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ * Naturalization Records http://naturalizationrecords.com/ * Images of Ships Lists http://www.rootsweb.com/~ote/ships/ otg@csolve.net or olivetreegenealogy@gmail.com
