Jeanie Johnston Tour, a must see if you make it to Dublin, Ireland
10/11/2022 Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. That was not the case today when Garouge narrated the incredible story and history of the Jeanie Johnston. Built in 1847 by a Scottish boat builder and purchased by Captain John Donovan of Tralee, Ireland (My mothers hometown) its initial purpose was to transport lumber from Quebec, Canada back to Ireland. It became an integral part in transporting those looking to escape “The Great Hunger.” While other coffin ships would take as many as 400 passengers, the Jeanie Johnston tried to never take more than 200 passengers. Passengers aboard her were given better living conditions, a ship’s doctor and a half hour each day on deck to tend to their chores during the four to five week trip across the Atlantic. While coffin ships experienced on average 15 deaths each voyage the Jeanie Johnston never experienced one death her entire time at sea. Anne and I visited her in Port Jefferson, New York when she toured there in 2003. If you make it to Dublin please put it on your list of things to see; you won’t be disappointed.
