Belfast Commercial Chronicle 27 Apr. 1849 Emigration The Powerscourt Estate Co. Tyrone The trustees of this estate lately sent out by the 'Elizabeth' and 'Helen Thompson', from this port to New York, about 200 small farmers and their families, who, being unable to support themselves on their lands, in consequence of the failure of the potato crop, were desirous to emigrate, but had not the necessary means. The trustees, through Walter HORE Esq., the agent of the estates, gave instructions that these poor people should be clothed, their passages paid, that they should be amply provided with provisions and that each of them should be given a sum of money in gold to meet their immediate wants on reaching their destination. The wishes of the trustees were most effectively carried out by Mr. Robert WILSON of Benburb, who came to Belfast and engaged the passages of the parties, provided them with everything necessary for the voyage and saw them comfortably berthed. We understand that between thirty and forty others from the same estate, will shortly be sent out in a similar manner.
