The Irish have always held strong ties to their small island country in the North Atlantic. However, when famine and disease ravaged Ireland during the mid-19th century, millions left their country hoping to make a fresh start elsewhere. Traveling to the United States and Canada, the Irish faced many difficulties as they tried to build their new lives.
