I believe my 2nd great-grandfather James Hughes may have travelled aboard that same ship (or perhaps the Thomas Gelston that travelled at the same time).  He and his wife Jane settled on St. Mary's Road.  I have pretty much hit a brick wall in tracing my lineage beyond one of those two boats.

James is buried at St. Pauls RC cemetery in Sturgeon, PEI while Jane moved to Boston following his death and is buried with her daughter's family there.

If you have made any in-roads in your research, please let me know.

Thank you,

Blair Hughes
