My Father tried to find information on which regiments were involved in the murder of Irish people during the starvation he could trace  ships laden with crops and wildstock which were forcibly removed from Ireland to their landing at Liverpool and Bristol to feed the English hungry.He was told that no records covering this period were available for public inspection,Why?It's not about compensation retribution or punishment it's about understanding where you came from and how your ancestor's were treated.Many of the hereditary illnesses Irish people suffer from now were formed by their treatment in that time.If the perpetrators as a Nation don't understand, face upto or remember their part in History what is to stop them repeating their actions?

Hi there, thank you. You are correct in what you say. People have carried the hereditary effects and Irish people are constantly being asked why they have a grudge or harbour feelings against the British government because of this. If the truth of their actions were exposed to the world fewer questions would be asked of us.
