Emigration from Southwest County Wicklow, Ireland
to Southern Ontario, Canada, 1846-1854 


New November 23, 2011: (See New twice in the Table below)

Here’s a group of emigrants from the Fitzwilliam Estate (Coolattin) in Southern County Wicklow, Ireland.
These folks arrived via the port of Quebec between 1846 and 1854 and settled in an area roughly from Toronto, Ontario,
north to Barrie, east to include Orillia, and west to take in Wellington County. 

Part of this large migration included many people from County Wicklow who settled in EASTERN Ontario.
Anne Burgess has been working on sorting out all of the families who are listed on the companion CD to the book Surplus People
by Jim Rees. If any of these families are known to you, e-mail us, and we'll set up a new web page for the families and
you will be able to share family history information, including old photographs, with other researchers.

Hi Al,

I’ve just come upon a website that seems to transcribe the complete list of emigrants from the Fitzwilliam CD:
