Historical Notes | When Thomas immigrated to American, several events were occurring in Ireland: Land Issues: Land ownership and tenancy were significant issues in Ireland during this period. Many Catholics and tenant farmers struggled with landownership and tenant rights. This led to tensions and sometimes violent conflicts, as seen in the Whiteboy and Hearts of Oak movements. Catholic Penal Laws: The majority of the Irish population, particularly the Catholic population, faced severe legal and political restrictions under the Penal Laws. These laws discriminated against Catholics and other non-Protestant religious groups, limiting their rights to hold public office, own land, and practice their religion freely. Protestant Ascendancy: The Protestant minority, mainly of English and Scottish descent, held a dominant position in Irish society, particularly in politics and landownership. They formed the backbone of the ruling class and controlled most of the wealth and power in Ireland. | |
