*new* for TheShipsList website http://www.theshipslist.com/ All the new and updated files and databases have been placed on their own page(s) Find them on the front page in between the big arrows --------------> <--------------- At the bottom of each of these pages I have placed links named " previous month " and " next month " so you are able to navigate back and forth between the monthly *new & updated* pages, as I only keep three months of *new* page links on the Home page.

Fraser had already provided us with "The Scottish Line" (McIlwraith MacEacharn) Fleet, to which the Scottish Hero belonged. For this voyage we have the Arrival & Voyage Reports ; Passenger List ; Deaths at Sea ; Crew List and Passenger Testimonial. Steamboat Chambly, which are the last 16 lists I have for 1824. Chambly was a brand new steamboat in 1824 and the July 16th trip was the first Quebec-Montreal trip for her. (that 1st list has a link to the newspaper report about her). Surprisingly, she took a little while to catch on. Her first few trips went . . Three Rivers, Sorel (or Berthier) via Chambly to Montreal, with stops at other way-ports, but then she began to follow the same routing as the other steamboats, so maybe the "via Chambly" was not so popular. I will now be returning to 1826 with many many more steamboats (so far I have only completed the 30 New Swiftsure trips for that year) Lastly . . . I decided to add some "Google Ad" links to some TheShipsList webpages, to offer links to additional resources for TSL visitors. I have no control of which Ads are displayed, but I have selected only "SafeSearch" option. Some of the links are great, but some others are a bit funny for our "history" pages, offering ships for sale, holidays on steamboats, how to get a green card, or looking for a naturalization attorney . . but, I suppose the people mentioned in our webpage content, back in the 1820s --->> &c. aren't exactly advertising on google <smile> Please share this *new* for TheShipsList website email, with any other list to which you belong if you think it might be of interest or value to those list members (in other words, on-topic).
