Jeanie Johnston - History
The original Jeanie Johnston was built in 1847 on the banks of the St. Lawrence River in Quebec City, Canada. Its architect was the Scottish-born shipbuilder and master craftsman John Munn.
The 408 ton cargo ship was purchased in Liverpool by John Donovan and Sons of Tralee, Co.Kerry. As the famine gripped Ireland, the company ran a successful trade bringing emigrants from Ireland to North America and returning with timbers bound for the ports of Europe.
The Jeanie Johnston made her maiden voyage on 24th April 1848 from Blennerville, Co. Kerry to Quebec with 193 passengers on board. Over the next seven years the ship made 16 voyages to North America carrying over 2,500 emigrants safely to the New World. Despite the seven week journey in very cramped and difficult conditions, no life was ever lost on board the ship - a remarkable achievement which is generally attributed to the ship's captain, Castletownshend-born James Attridge and the experienced Ship's Doctor, Dr Richard Blennerhassett.
The replica ship was designed by Fred Walker, former Chief Naval Architect with the Maritime Museum in Greenmich, England. The recreation was modelled closely on that of the 17th century Dutch East India ship, the 'Batavia'.
Work began in 1993 and was completed in 2002. The ship is built with larch planks on oak frames, however to comply with international maritime regulations some concessions to modernity had to be made. She has two Caterpillar engines, two Caterpillar generators, an emergency generator located above the waterline in the forward deckhouse. steel water-tight bulkheads, down-flooding valves and fire-fighting equipment.

나는 이민선으로 복원한 배에 올랐다. 낡고 작은 이 배는 한 번에 약 200명의 이주민을 태우고, 대서양을 횡단했단다. 이민선이 향한 곳은 북아메리카. 그 많은 사람을 태우고, 길게는 두 달이 넘는 항해를 했다고 한다. 이민선의 생활은 가혹했다. 몸을 포개야 할 만큼 좁은 공간에, 형편없는 음식. 배 안에선 역병이 돌았고, 수많은 사람들이 죽음을 맞이했다. 때문에 당시 이민선을 ‘시체를 담는 관을 실은 배’라 해서 ‘관선’이라 불렀다고 한다. “이민선이 대서양을 건너던 당시의 기상 조건은 불행히도 어떻게 할 방법이 없었지만 배의 승선환경에서 가장 위험한 것은 대부분 질병이었습니다. 대기근 이민선의 환경이 워낙 열악했으니까요.”

The Dunbrody - Irish Famine Ship
A potato blight in Ireland, starting in 1845, resulted in the death of over one million people and set in motion one of the greatest human migrations in history. During the famine years over one and a half million Irish men, woman and children left their country on famine ships like the Dunbrody now on perminent display in New Ross, Ireland. Visitors tour below deck and actors tell of the people's experience on the 6-8 week voyage to America when as many as 50 percent perished. In our time there is another Irish migration underway, this one caused by the worldwide economic decline.
