Lost Children of the Carricks | Defying the Great Irish Famine to Create a Canadian Legacy
➣ Written and directed by Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin.
➣ Produced by Cecilia McDonnell, Celtic Crossing Productions
"𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐬" is a timeless story of emigration-from tragedy and exodus to acceptance and integration in the New World. Filmed on location in Canada and in Ireland, the film traces the horrific journey of Patrick Kaveney, Sarah MacDonald and their six children from Keash in south Sligo to Québec’s Gaspé peninsula, where their ill-fated coffin ship the Carricks sunk in May 1847.
The film follows Québécois Irish historian, Georges Kavanagh as he walks in the footsteps of his grandfather’s grandfather, through the landmarks and seamarks of the Carricks tragedy and finally his return home down a narrow country road to his ancestral village to meet cousins who assumed that their relatives had all perished in the wreck of the Carricks during the blackest year of Ireland’s Great Famine.
A trilingual film, "𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐬" is narrated by Irish poet, Vincent Woods and features musicians and singers from Ireland and Canada-among them, Áine Meenaghan, Mícheál Ó hAlmhain, Pierre Schryer, Kate Bevan-Baker and Joan Hanrahan.

"𝐋𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐬" is the first trilingual film to deal with the Great Irish Famine (English | Irish | French)
This story focuses on an Irish-speaking community that transitioned directly to a French-speaking world. Great Famine research has focused mainly on the lifeworlds of Irish immigrants in English-speaking urban North America.

Lord Palmerston’s tenants departed a Gaelic world in rural Sligo for a Francophone world in rural Québec, carrying their music and folklore, language and religion to an emerging Canadian nation.
One of nine coffin ships hired by Palmerston to transport 2000 of his surplus tenants to Canada, The Carricks would wreck off the frozen Gaspé coast on the Gulf of St. Lawrence in May 1847. Only 48 of the 173 passengers would reach the shore alive.
The film opens with a haunting sean nós lament and re-enacts an old tradition of leave-taking in the West of Ireland. Before departing home and clachán, emigrants brought their fire to the fire of a neighbour hoping that one day they would return home to reclaim it and, with it their place in the Old World.
For Patrick Kaveney and Sarah MacDonald’s family from Lord Palmerston’s estate in south Sligo, those embers would flicker in waiting for 168 years.

Filmed on location in the Gaspé and in Ireland, Lost Children of the Carricks traces the extraordinary journey of Patrick Kaveney, Sarah MacDonald and their six children from their clachán in Cross, near Ballymote to Québec’s Gaspé peninsula, and the remarkable return of their francophone descendants to Ireland five generations and 168 years later.
The film follows Québécois-Irish historian Georges Kavanagh as he walks in the footsteps of his ‘grandfather’s grandfather’- through the landmarks and seamarks of The Carricks tragedy and finally down the narrow country road to his ancestral village to meet a community of cousins who had assumed that their relatives had all perished in the wreck of The Carricks.

Fantastic film, bringing history to life.
Great Video thanks for sharing
A brilliant & superbly produced & documented film, albeit, laced with such sad & touching stories regarding the Irish.
In truth, this is very bittersweet.
To the many innocent Irish people who suffered so very much, may you all rest in eternal peace & do know, that your lives & your stories will never ever be forgotten.
I often think of you all when alone & in deep contemplative thought & I can only imagine what you all must have endured & almost always, through no fault of your own.
Life isn't always fair & some people weren't/aren't always good hearted or kind & these stories & countless more do verify this truth.
Thank you for sharing & please bring to us who are interested, more interesting & educational documentaries/films, regarding the Irish throughout history.
I could tell the Irish government or its proxies had nothing to do with this amaxing film. If they'd been involved Palmerston would have been a hero and there would be no comments critical of free trade.
There should be far more films like this one.
Two you tube channels you that you may find quite interesting are,

It has occurred to me countless times, that historically, wherever the selfish & self serving British went & often without invite, a very sad trail of loss, cruelty, pain, disaster, suffering & more often ensued.
very true
0:50 The melody sounds like kind of Mongolian music.
Those mysterious diseases! I wonder if that could be man made, like many other disasters in our history. Till today.
