Hello All,
Not quite Pennsylvania related, but I thought it was still worth
mentioning here. The US National Archives has put the Irish Famine
Immigrants database online and it is free to search. This covers Irish
immigrants to the port of New York from 1846-1851. Start here...

http://aad.archives.gov/aad/title_list.jsp

Pull down the subject search menu to "Irish," then click submit. On the
next page click on "Famine Irish Data Files, 1977 ? - 1989 ?" Then on
the next page click on the "search" link on the right side (under
"options"). On the search page you put the name of the person you are
looking for in the boxes under "enter values."

You can find this and other similar databases listed on my site here...

Good luck with your searches.

Joe
