Hopes Fulfilled: The Irish Immigrants in Boston

by Lisa Trumbauer Narrated by Highlights for Children

Overview

The Potato Famine started the Irish people moving to the United States. For many, the trip ended at Boston, Massachusetts. There, they had to find a place to stay and a job. At first it was easy because they knew English.

The Irish in Boston worked together politically and in 1885 elected the first Irish mayor of Boston. As the years passed, the Irish became more successful in their adopted country.
