'The Irish in Philadelphia: Coming to America
This video succinctly recounts the story of more than four centuries of migration from Ireland to Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. It traces the immigrants’ experience after arriving in America and describes their involvement in major historical events. Of particular significance is the massive surge in the numbers of Irish immigrants arriving in Philadelphia during the period now known as the ‘Great Famine’ or the ‘Great Hunger’. It’s a fascinating story.
