Is this a good, helpful list or what? I put in a query and got four answers almost immediately. Actually, I had just about given up on finding the ship my grandparents came over on, and found the one my great uncle did, but I came into this interesting information today, and wondered if the Passenger Ship List knew of this. Did you? Now I can find out.... "The British Queen was a full-masted sailing ship built in 1785 and under the command of Capt. Thomas Conway.She left Dublin on Oct. 22, 1851 with a cargo of immigrants bound for New York City .They paid 5 pounds for a berth and were required to provide their own food. There is no record of the names of the passengers. On Dec.18, 1851 , she was blown off course and foundered on a reef 12 miles out of Nantucket. Ships went out and rescued 226 passengers, two others had died. The ship was sold as salvage, but nothing was left but the quarterboard, which floated ashore.The passengers were later taken on to New York." This at least answers, for me, why it is so hard to find your ancestors' name(s) on lists. Milli
