“Whole families emigrated owing to eviction by the landlords, some perished on foreign shores and others got on well”
Whole families emigrated owing to eviction by the landlords,
some perished on foreign shores and others got on well. There is a story told of an emigrant from South-Cork returning to Ireland after a number of years and placing a wreath on the landlords grave, because he said, were it not for the landlord having evicted him from his little farm he'd be still working there instead of owning a big business as he had in America
