Did We Lose Family Members on a Famine Ship?

An interesting article in the Irish Times describes the heavy toll of the famine on Ulster.

Here is the introduction to the article:

The tragedy of a coffin ship which hit an iceberg and sank was recalled at the first National Famine Commemoration event to be held in Northern Ireland.Hannah left Warrenpoint in April 1849 with approximately 170 passengers and crew on board.She sank in the Gulf of St Lawrence on April 29th, 1849 with at least 49 deaths though the ship’s list was lost and nobody knows exactly how many people were on board.Most of those on board Hannah were from South Armagh.
Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht Heather Humphreys referenced the Murphy family from Mullaghbane who lost two of their children in the sinking and whose descendants still live in North Crosby, Ontario.The annual commemoration was held at Albert Basin, Newry. Nearby Warrenpoint was a major port of emigration during the famine years. Hannah sailed from there on April 4th.

If any of you historians and/or researchers out there, have any further information on the events in this article, particularly on the Murphys, we would love to hear from you!
