Hi listers

Thank you for your help on the above ships. I would like to share
a site I found regarding these 3 'coffin ships'. The site appears
to be a lesson given at the college. It comes in 7 parts.

You can find it at
http://nde4.nde.state.ne.us/SS/irish/unit_5.html

Chapters are:
1. Laws that isolated and impovereshed the Irish
2. Racism
3. Mass Evictions During Famine
4. Mortality Rates and The Horror
5. Emigration: Departure, Crossing and Arrivals
6. Genocide
7. Famine Poetry

In order to view each individual page just change the number
before the .html to the corresponding chapter you want.

The chapter on the ships was outstanding. Each chapter references
the books where the information was found so you can go to your
local library and read it in its entirety if you'd like.

Thank you again for helping me with my New Brunswick questions.
