A possible lead

I may have a lead on Daniel Harrington's arrival in the States. I posted a question on a couple of genealogy forums, and got this back:

- 2 marriage records for the father William in co Cork 1829 and 1832-neither is coming up with Margaret as spouse but that may be only because Margaret may be her middle name or a first name she didn't use too often.

-Passenger list records: 26 Aug 1839 Margaret Harrington age 35,Hannah Harrington age 14,Daniel Harrington age 7 and Mary Harrington age 3 all travelling on the "Union Jack" from St George,New Brunswick to Boston,Mass.

That passenger list info matches up with Daniel's age, and traveling with his mother. Hmmm.
