True, Peter. My ancestors came from Ireland, Scotland, Isle of Man, and
one from England. That one did not have to pay his own fare - it was
provided for him by Queen Victoria who seemed to think both he and
England would benefit from a sea voyage for him. Not sure if they fed
him lime juice or not.
