The most likely ship I can come up with is the LADY BAGOT, Captain Anderson, which sailed from Waterford on May 27th 1847 and arrived at Saint John, NB on July 17th 1847. Here she is announced to sail . . . Government Immigrant Agency, St. John, N.B. 17th June, 1847. Lists of Passengers by the following vessels have been received at this Office by the 4th June Mail: From Pas'gs Cleared Lady Bagot Waterford 341 27th May http://www.theshipslist.com/1847/shipsnb1847j.html . . .even though it mentions the list of passenger received at St. John, those don't survive, as they were all burned in the customs house fire in 1877 http://www.theshipslist.com/accounts/stjohn.html July 17 Lady Bagot Anderson 46 days New Ross passengers to John Robertson http://www.theshipslist.com/1847/shipsnb1847jl.html Have you checked the Irish Famine Migration to New Brunswick http://archives.gnb.ca/APPS/PrivRecs/IrishFamine/?L=EN Sue -- TheShipsList Website http://www.theshipslist.com/
