DOWNLOAD EBOOKMass immigration to the United States was nowhere more apparent than in the immigration of the Irish between 1815 and the failure of the potato crop in 1845/1846, during which time a million Irish men and women emigrated here. This book provides a detailed account of the economic, social, and political factors underlying the early migrations; an examination of the emigrant trade and its links with American shipping interests; and a history of government policy regarding assisted and unassisted emigration.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is a comprehensive study of the evolution and achievements of the county survey or system in Ireland. The introduction in 1834 of these officials - county engineers in modern terminology - to local government was a major innovation, bringing the infrastructural work of the grand juries under the supervision and direction of a corps of professional engineers; and the appointments themselves were the first at local or central level in the United KingdomÃ?Â?Ã?Â?which were made on the basis of competitive examinations. In the years that followed, the new county surveyors and their successors went on to play a major role in the construction of roads, bridges and public buildings, many of which are still in use today. Preliminary essays describe how appointments were made over the period 1834-1944 and how the work of the surveyors contributed to building up local infrastructure. The biographical dictionary which follows outlines in some detail the careers and achievements of the 200 surveyors who served in the thirty-two counties during the period.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThese passenger lists, which cover the period of the Irish Famine and its aftermath, identify the emigrants' "actual places of residence", as well as their port of departure and nationality. Essentially business records, the lists were developed from the order books of two main passenger lines operating out of Londonderry--J.& J. Cooke (1847-67) and William McCorkell & Co. (1863-71). Both sets of records provide the emigrant's name, age, and address, and the name of the ship. The Cooke lists provide the ship's destination and year of sailing, while the McCorkell lists provide the date engaged and the scheduled sailing date. Altogether 27,495 passengers are identified.
