Quail Family Genealogy Forum
  
David Quail was born in 1817 in the north of Ireland, Provence of Ulster, County of Down, Parrish of Glenallen near Warrenpoint. He settled near Earlville, NY about 1850. The rest of David's family were drowned in the sinking of the sailing ship "Governor Fenner" from a collision with the steam ship "Nottingham". The collision information came from a newspaper article in the Belfast Commercial Chronicle dated Monday, March 1, 1841. David Quail married Sarah Johnston who was born in 1822 in County Down, Ireland. They were married in Earlville, NY. David's parents were Thomas and Susan Quail who both died in 1823 in Ireland.
I found this info regarding a shipwreck posted 3/11/01, I think, on the bulletin board. Does it fit?
