A little on the Irish in Pennsylvania
From about 1716 and up to the era of the American Revolutionary War, the immigration of the Scots-Irish to Pennsylvania came in waves. The severe hardship in Ireland both religious and economic had caused the immigrations. The Scots Irish who came into PA were the frontiersman type who moved on into the Cumberland Valley and then beyond. Many spread into Appalachia where their descendants live today. By 1776 one-quarter of the population in Pennsylvania was Scots-Irish.
