  1. Here's an idea! Google it like I did!


  2. Why?

    Potato famine caused death and unemployment. I think it reduced the population by as much as 25%.  They left for the US on the promise of work and land.

    When?

    1845-1852

    Who?

    Working class Irish, mainly. Though I'm sure some of the wealthy left for the US too.

    How?

    By boat!

  3. There was a serious potato famine in Ireland.
