For those whose Irish forebares lived in NYC in the latter half of 19th Century, and who wish to learn how they lived, recommend reading "Plunkitt of Tammany Hall, by William L. Riordon, published by Bedford Books of St. MArtin's Press, Boston & New York, 1992. It was part of U.S. Urban History Course I took in 1995 at University of New Orleans. Gives one a better under- standing of Irish life at that time.
