Irish moving to America

Imagine, in 1905, you were a 14 year old Irish boy who was hungry nationwide and could not find a job. Your only foolish thing is to go to America. You quickly found yourself on a small boat for two months and hundreds of people visited the United States. When entering the harbor, you can see the symbol of freedom, the statue of liberty. You have finally succeeded. Because this is only a small part of what my family has to endure, they are free and they can survive.

It tells the story of Iris (Saoirse Ronan), Iris (Saoirse Ronan), it immigrated to the United States to start a new life, leaving her sister and mother. It is about the balance of fear and excitement to start something in a new place, and the temptation of familiar comfort and home coming home when things become difficult.

In 1765, a poor Scottish Irish family moved to the United States and hoped to escape the cruel reality of European life. My family moved to Waxhaw in South Carolina. On March 15, 1767, a child was born and named Andrew Jackson. Soon after his birth, a revolutionary war began between America and the UK. This year when the British occupied the South Carolina this year was 1780, Andrew 's eldest son fought in their hometown and joined the American army, but he died of heat stroke in the battle. Looking at his younger brother, Jackson joined the army as a messenger. After the battle stopped, Andrew Jackson and his brother Robert (now joining the US military) returned to Crawford's house. Even if the official battle was temporarily interrupted, the "civil war" was furious with a patriot who fought against the conservatives of South Carolina and captured the young Andrew Jackson in fighting.

By 1860 on the eve of the Civil War, only 84,000 out of the 1.2 million Irish who lived in America lived in the south. Since many South Conflict records can not survive the war, historians generally think that about 20,000 Irish immigrants are working in the Federal Forces; nearly a quarter of South Ireland's population . In contrast, 10% (150,000) of over 1 million Irish immigrants living in the northern states serve the federal army.
