Service Description:
This layer contains only the hillshade, celtic circles, lakes and a buffer around the island. Based on a map by
Kenneth Field.
Surnames from Ireland abound in the United States, even after subsequent waves of immigration from other parts of the world. According to the Census Bureau, around 33 million Americans claim Irish ancestry. That’s 10.1 percent of the U.S. population—and more than five times Ireland's current population of 6.6 million.
The abundance of Irish names in America is in large part a result of the Great Famine of 1846-49. Much of Ireland's impoverished rural population had come to depend for sustenance almost exclusively on the potato—a crop that, ironically, originated in the New World. A water mold called Phytophthora arrived from North America in 1845 and caused much of Ireland's potato crop to rot in the fields over several successive years.
