Hi there:
You are the second post about emigration to Canada this morning! I have given the following websites to the other poster which I will copy here for you:
https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Library_and_Archives_Canada
Canadiana website which is an amalgamation of various libraries and other reference collections and it has a lot of information that may be useful to you. https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/Pages/home.aspx
I would also suggest that you have a look at the Carlow Historical Society website here: https://carlowhistorical.com/
and the Wexford Historical Society website here: http://www.wexfordhistoricalsociety.com/
If you need any further assistance, please let us know.
All the best,
Jane
