Passenger lists Dublin to Liverpool

[BeeE586]

I remember being on the quayside at (I think) Heysham some years ago when a very swish car was being lifted onto the ferry. The car was perhaps five feet in the air when the tackle slipped, the car landed back on the dock and the chains that had been lifting it crashed onto the car bonnet. The men doing the loading were quite unconcerned, one of them produced a rag from his pocket and rubbed the bonnet and then they attached the chains again and swung the car onto the boat.

I'm just glad it wasn't my car !!

Hi Richard,
I know little about how people travelled this route but I know I have one Irish family in Liverpool by 1828 at the latest - arriving sometime after 1815. You might only be able to narrow down the time they made the trip.

I have someone similar in my tree, Richard.

He came from Ireland in the early years of the nineteenth century and was living in County Durham in 1815 when he married an English rose.
