The Barbara was an cargo ship out of Galway that occasionally carried emigrants from Ireland to the United States in the late 1840's. This is my interpretation (scratch-built--my first rough attempt at building from scratch) of what she may have looked like. These are some picture of the cargo deck before beginning to lay down the floor of the passenger deck.

Nice details of "life" in the hold - even the ships-rat is there
So I am looking forward to see the complete ship
