Rebecca Lee
Our sources for Hugh's parents and for Sarah's parents do not list any Rebecca siblings. That's in conflict with this quote from The Clan Linn:
In arranging for this long journey it was decided that the second child, William, a lad of eight years, should be left in care of his aunt, Rebecca Lee.
Who is this Rebecca Lee?
Immigration
The Irish Emigration Database seems to be fairly comprehensive in its records of newspaper clippings about ships leaving Ireland for the US. It lists these ships having left for Philadelphia (dates are of articles, not departure):
- The Brig Two Brothers To Philadelphia (Article on 17-02-1788. Departed Feb 17)
- The Ship Rising Sun To Newcastle & Philadelphia. (Article on 18-01-1788. Intended to departed Apr 1. Looks like they got bumped to May 1?)
- Ship Alexander, Londonderry to Newcastle & Philadelphia, U.S.A. (Article on 11-03-1788. Departed Apr 25)
- Brig Maria, Londonderry to US. (Article on 11-03-1788. Departed May 1)
- Ship Betsey, Londonderry to US. (Article on 01-04-1788. Departed May 1)
- Ship Friendship, Belfast to Newcastle and Philadelphia, U.S.A. (Article on 11-04-1788. Departed May 1)
- Ship Mary, Newry to Philadelphia, U.S.A. (Article on 12-04-1788. Departed May 12)
- Ship Nancy, Londonderry to Newcastle & Philadelphia, U.S.A. (Article on 25-04-1788. Departed May 20)
- Ship Hannibal, Belfast to Newcastle & Philadelphia, U.S.A. (Article on 25-04-1788. Departed May 25)
