    3. I wonder how the Registrar General collected this data in those turbulent times. I mean, were turnstiles erected along the borders of County Clare ? Or at the ports ? If so, did they count the ones who came back home (as happened in my family). What, for that matter, was the definition of "emigration" ? If one asks the average ex-pat nowadays whether she/he has "emigrated" the majority will say "we..ee..l, I dunno, I guess I'll go back to XY one day....". Nevertheless, the numbers are interesting. Thanks, Larry.
