I am Irish and I find it painful to watch this and other videos. I cry as I watch them but I must watch. I learned all this in history lessons in Ireland but it is only when you are older and far away from your homeland that you appreciate how they suffered. Greatest people in the world are the Irish!
No need to feel sadness Kate. That was their life. They thought nothing if it and were making the most of it. People will look back at our lifetime and marvel at how we survived 😂😂.
I have always loved the Irish. Many immigrated to Canada settling in Newfoundland. They retained their accent and became our cherished "Newfies". I had a Newfie girlfriend once.
ERIN GO BRAGH! May the sun always be in yer face, the rain at yer back. God's blessing be upon this house. May yer stores be full & yer fires always warm...
Wow amazing pictures love old photos of people back in the day i always think to my self i wonder what they was up to that day or later that day or what there home life was like...... Beautiful people..Great job 👍🏻🏴
Imagine immigrating from such an agrarian place such as Ireland to a futuristic modern place like new york in the 1920s. I would hate to imagine the shock to the system!!!
An amazing video so important the images of people long past, are not forgotten. My ancestors left Mayo, Galway and Conamara about the time of the Great famine. Settled in Yorkshire England. My late Father in Law also settled in Yorkshire leaving Clontia Bonniconlon Mayo, when he was a young Man in the 1930, He told me his Mother was heartbroken he was leaving because her 4 other Sons had already emigrated to either England or America. No telephones facetime or emails then. Thanks for the video.
Sad to see the Children in bare feet in the Nineteenth Century, we have no idea how tough a childhood was then. Imagine being without shoes constantly even through an Irish Winter. Imagine if they could see the way Kids live nowadays.
I noticed that invariably the adults had shoes, but often the children not. How could adults shoe their feet while leaving their children barefoot? So shocking.
@@skatergirlskatergirl2486 maybe it’s because the children’s feet were growing so they couldn’t afford to buy shoes so regularly but an adult could buy shoes and they would probably last for years being repaired, etc. Don’t know for sure, it’s just a thought.
It's some ways it seems so long ago until it reached the 60's then I realised that was when my father was a teenager, then it feels very recent. Time is a funny thing, so much has changed over such a short period. I wonder will people look at photos of us in 100 years and think 'look at how hard things were back then?
say they'd be proud to see a democratic enlightened modern country where people of every colour creed gender or sexuality are free to live their lives. They'd have no time for a petty little shit-stirrer like you though
What a great video. Music was great too. Tell you what's a great piece of music to go with very old country pics : Harry's Game (theme song). Try it especially with late 19th century country people. It's haunting
Hey there! I came across your comment and I just had to reach out and say hi. Your perspective really caught my attention and I would love to get to know you better. Would you be interested in chatting sometime? Looking forward to hearing back from you! 😊
Fantastic collection of strong independent Irish women No me too celebrities with airs and grace just plain modest intelligent hard working women and did they have a hard life.I was a child in the sixties and remember seeing similar women then.
Ireland was a province in the UK at the time most of these photos were taken with the presence of the British Army and other British officials in control any talk of Ireland being Irish was not tolerated.
Thank you so much, sadly I am closing down this channel in the next couple of weeks as youtube has demonitized me, they have accused me of being a bot and that I didn't make these videos, I am devastated but have opened a channel up on Daily motion, anyway thank you so much for watching, take care.
It's because you are showing a History "they" don't want people to know and think about because it takes away from the UN Agenda 2021/2030/2035 Narrative they are trying to spin. Don't stop making things to show how things really were for people if you can possibly continue. The only way the lies stop is if people refuse to tolerate them. @@IrishHistorybyFreyaGunhild

We are all still miserable here lol, I'd give anything to emigrate but sadly the funds won't let me, but my children and most of my family managed to escape, Ireland is only for the rich.☘
Proud to be Irish. Unfortunately the country now us a sad reflection of what it was. In my grandma times. I retire next year in the Philippines I simply can not afford to stay
It takes decades to change an economy. When Ireland adapted market economics in the 1940s it took near to 40 years for people to the fruits of that labour.
The suffering these people suffered under British rule was terrible. Kept in poverty and some people in tbe photos would have lived through the Great hunger.
I'm not trying to be smart here but have you heard about the "Volume control button" , it does be on most electronic audio and visual devices these days, I do use it sometimes too, you can turn down as well as up the volume on anything, imagine that. Take care.

Beautiful photography. People looked so noble. Oh dear, how they suffered...but survived. Blessings.

Yes we are

It's happening already this time its Irish politicians doing it to their own people mot English
Look at the faces and the harshness they got us where we are today by determination and survival they are our people and we are part of them

Get here fast if you would like to see the Irish before they disappear into the sea of brown face moving here.
God bless Ireland for ever amen
Absolutely amazing photos of our history. What a resilient people our ancestors were. ❤
I am old enough to remember those days.
ERIN GO BRAGH!
May the sun always be in yer face, the rain at yer back.
God's blessing be upon this house. May yer stores be full & yer fires always warm...
Wonderful. This stirs me emotions until the tears. Thanks a lot.
I love the Irish.
I will visit Ireland soon
Welcome anytime 🙏🙏🤷♂️
Becoming very violent and unsafe.
Assaults everyday - murders every week. Céad míle fáilte long gone.
Don't heed those nay Sayers, come you shall be very welcome
@@Bran9It’s only fair to give a warning of the reality of Ireland now & what the people just passively accept .
Thank you for this beautiful clip..thank you for taking the time to put up these lovley photos.
Thank you for posting greatly appreciated 😀
You are most welcome, thank you ☘☘
Wow amazing pictures love old photos of people back in the day i always think to my self i wonder what they was up to that day or later that day or what there home life was like...... Beautiful people..Great job 👍🏻🏴

It was a hard life for those children and you can see it etched in their tense, worried faces.
Watch Angela’s Ashes, it will shock you. And that’s in the 1940s I think. x

Respect. I so enjoyed this. Mother from Clifton, Galway 1930 or so.
i like how you brought these photos to a whole new place that actually brings you inside the place in time ... kinda mesmerized me lol ....5 stars
Welcome footo god and beautiful and you beautiful ireland beautiful toop
These photos are from the books Old Ireland in Color by John Breslin.
The 11.08 image. Very powerful. The 2 boys look drenched in pain.
Great photos. Today we don’t know we are born compared to what these people lived through. x
The poverty shown in many of these pictures is heartbreaking.
Beautiful gentle people of Ireland. My grandparents are from Galway .Cork .Wales and Cumbria
Love to all in Jesus
We aren’t gentle at all😂
Brilliant photos well done perfect music
Ireland for the Irish ☘️ ❤
It should be but its been invaded.
There were 5 invasions before. What's another one.Slán👍☘️
@@LabRat6619emigration when its US, invasion when it’s them eh
?
Do you know anyone named Roche Halpin Fitzgerald, Burke, Barry, Tobin, Power, Nugent, Lawless, Butler they all have their origins from the Normans
I wonder how these great Irish people would feel if they could see the Ireland of today
Sad confused wondering where are the values. The Irish!
say they'd be proud to see a democratic enlightened modern country where people of every colour creed gender or sexuality are free to live their lives.
They'd have no time for a petty little shit-stirrer like you though
Amazing to see the pictures in Colour 😍
Thank you so much, I am making one with them turning from B/W to colour, going to take a while but stay tuned x
Yes when I see children barefoot no shoes, amazed how they survived.
Beautiful video 📹 ❤️
Absolutely fascinating!
Thank you, I enjoy putting them together, glad you found it interesting ☘️
Love it our Ireland 🇮🇪
so sad and beautiful
What a great video. Music was great too. Tell you what's a great piece of music to go with very old country pics : Harry's Game (theme song). Try it especially with late 19th century country people. It's haunting
How have we come so far in really a short space of time
Heart and hard work. This Irish spirit ✊🍀
So many without shoes.

Womens' faces look exhausted and old before their time. Hard life!
Fantastic collection of strong independent Irish women
No me too celebrities with airs and grace just plain modest intelligent hard working women and did they have a hard life.I was a child in the sixties and remember seeing similar women then.
These are my people.. greetings from Ireland
A great time for men’s hats.
thank you , great work
Very nice. Thank you!
You are most welcome, and thank you for watching it, very much apreciated.
It's beautiful video
When Ireland was Irish
Ireland was a province in the UK at the time most of these photos were taken with the presence of the British Army and other British officials in control any talk of Ireland being Irish was not tolerated.
It’s great we still have some photographs of the native indigenous peoples.
GOD BLESS AND KEEP IRELAND
Nice old photos, but the women @6:09 are spinning, not weaving.
Beautiful
Wonderful!
I love them because del love God. And virgen Mary
Love this.
Great, photos
One thing I noticed they was not any garbage lying around.
Good eye ya have!👁️
They didn't have anything to throw away.

Vielen Dank 💚☘
@@IrishHistorybyFreyaGunhild gerne doch 👕💚🤗
Beautiful photography, but everyone looks miserable. It's no surprise so many emigrated.

6:55 Yikes! Tough choice...
1980s Ireland. We hadn't a pot to pi ss in nor a camera to photograph it with
And then, big Jack Charlton landed, and everything changed.
It takes decades to change an economy. When Ireland adapted market economics in the 1940s it took near to 40 years for people to the fruits of that labour.
Ireland now.
You don't make flax...you spin flax to make linen...I think 😅😅
Traditional Irish music would have been much nicer.
It was so poor a hundred year ago ! 😪
The suffering these people suffered under British rule was terrible. Kept in poverty and some people in tbe photos would have lived through the Great hunger.
Why do you show the bad side
That's actually the good side 😆

Beautiful, simple but very hard lives. Found it weird that so many women were dressed like Muslim women dress now a days.

Could have done without the annoying music on continuous loop, otherwise great pictures!
What intress me is the lack of footwere in nearly every country in the 20th century why was this. 🤔☘️

Had to stop watching because of the LOUD music.

Why is everyone white?
Nobody from abroad wanted to come to the place and a lot of the people in the place went to look for a better life elsewhere.
Homogeneous the way we like it
No PC then and no free hand outs
Homogeneous society just the way I like it
What a stupid question

Agreed destroying our country
