What phrase are you looking for?? Irish economic and social history, Volumes 22-23 has the phrase " From the 1720s, the fertile parishes of east Donegal, on the west bank of the Foyle river, were/a major source of Presbyterian emigration/ which/continued/ and perhaps accelerated after the American Revolution.*..." * Subject: Re: [S-I] Thoughts on replying to an American etc letter Hi Linda, Is this in Emigrants and Exiles? Do have the page reference or even the exact phrase? I have the book and have searched it several times but can't find this quote. I even tried using Google books to search it then reading the paper pages for the ones Google isn't displaying and still no luck.
