Description:
Perhaps as important a destination as Boston or New York for Irish
immigrants, Chicago was the destination for many immigrants from the Emerald
Isle in the 19th and 20th Century. This database is a collection of records
regarding many of the Irish families who made their home in this city between
1875 and 1925. Newly updated to add over 5,000 entries, information provided
includes births, marriages, and deaths, often including names of relatives.
Taken from a wide variety of sources, including local histories, parish records,
