I've just finished putting more ships online on Olive Tree
Genealogy for the year 1854 from the J & J Cooke Shipping
Agents Records.
These are the Passenger Books of J & J Cooke, Shipping
Agents with sailings from Londonderry to Philadelphia
Pennsylvania, Quebec, St. John, New Brunswick and New
Orleans Louisiana from 1847 to 1871
The index to the ships I have online so far from JJ Cooke
Records is at

Mary Ann Second Journey Ireland to St. John, New Brunwsick
1854
These lists to Canada (above) help to fill in the pre-1865
unarchived years for Passenger Lists to Canada, so be sure
to have a look if you think your ancestors may have gone
that route. Many USA destined passengers sailed by way of a
Canadian port as it was much cheaper.
I also added the following ships to Pennsylvania, from the
JJ Cooke Shipping Records:
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/jj_superior54-pa.shtml
Superior Ireland to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 1854
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/jj_edward54-pa.shtml
Edward Ireland to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 1854
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/jj_garland54-pa.shtml
Garland Ireland to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 1854
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/jj_libuina54-pa.shtml
Libuina Ireland to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 1854
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/jj_argentinus54-
pa.shtml
Argentinus Ireland to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 1854

copy and paste BOTH lines into your web browser)
I also time last week making some big changes on my Ships
Passenger Lists section. The navigation system is different
now, and hopefully easier for you to use. Take your time
and check it out, it requires more clicking through the
website, but should be less confusing for visitors
I also created pages for
Ships Passenger Lists to Quebec
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/qu_ships.shtml
Ships Passenger Lists to New Brunswick
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/nb_ships.shtml
and
Ships Passenger Lists to Nova Scotia
http://olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/ns_ships.shtml
As always, the secret to successful hunting on Olive Tree
Genealogy pages is to slow down. :-)
3 Steps to Finding an Ancestor
1. Let each page load completely BEFORE you click on a
choice
2. Scroll DOWN each page, take a quick look to see what is
offered BEFORE you click on a choice
3. Start at the top again. Read the page! Don't just click
on the first thing you see :-) I know how impatient and
eager we all are to find that ancestor *but* if you click
too fast you may not know what you are clicking on. S L O W
down, it's a big site you can't see it all in one day.
4. All databases on all my sites are F R E E. There is
never a charge to view the thousands of databases you will
find on Olive Tree or my other sites.
Curious what other sites I created and maintain? It's a
long list! But here goes.....
