Number 4 in 8 videos. A selection of photographs of Ireland from 1860 to 1969, some rare some not so rare, all amazing, the ghosts of time.

I am Irish and I find it painful to watch this and other videos. I cry as I watch them but I must watch. I learned all this in history lessons in Ireland but it is only when you are older and far away from your homeland that you appreciate how they suffered. Greatest people in the world are the Irish!

I have always loved the Irish. Many immigrated to Canada settling in Newfoundland. They retained their accent and became our cherished "Newfies". I had a Newfie girlfriend once.

An amazing video so important the images of people long past, are not forgotten. My ancestors left Mayo, Galway and Conamara about the time of the Great famine. Settled in Yorkshire England. My late Father in Law also settled in Yorkshire leaving Clontia Bonniconlon Mayo, when he was a young Man in the 1930, He told me his Mother was heartbroken he was leaving because her 4 other Sons had already emigrated to either England or America. No telephones facetime or emails then. Thanks for the video.

It's some ways it seems so long ago until it reached the 60's then I realised that was when my father was a teenager, then it feels very recent.

@@skatergirlskatergirl2486 maybe it’s because the children’s feet were growing so they couldn’t afford to buy shoes so regularly but an adult could buy shoes and they would probably last for years being repaired, etc. Don’t know for sure, it’s just a thought.
