In answer to question :
While in Sligo, Ireland, a few weeks ago, newspapers there said the hull of the Carrick of Whitehaven had emerged fromthe sands near Blanc Sablon. While sailing from Sligo to Quebec in April 1847 the Carrick sank on the rocks off Gaspe, and later the tide floated the remnants to the north shore. Although more drowned than were saved, some 80 to 100 survived and supposedly many settled in the Gaspe area. Would anyone know where I could obtain a list if survivors?
