Hi,
Was wondering if any members can trace their roots back to the Irish in Fulham and Hammersmith who may have come over from Ireland during the famine of 1845 - 1850.
If so do you know where in Ireland your ancestor originally came from. Can't seem to find out where mine came from but I do think it is either County Limerick or Cork. Town or areas is unknown.
Thank you.

People migrated from all over Ireland; many as human ballast in ships, who were landed on a beach and made their way to all parts of mainland Britain.
Have you found this family in the 1851 and/or 1861 census? - and does it by any chance mention a place or county in Ireland as a birthplace?

Who?
Hi Mary
Would be interested to know who you are looking for in Hammersmith? My cousin (with whom I share a tree) has ancestors from Cork who appear to have gravitated to the Hammersmith and Fulham area - which, incidentally, is just across the river from where I now live...
