Long before there were unions or any safety net, the Irish Catholic newcomer in America often had just one thing standing between his family and ruin, the brotherhood of his own countrymen. 🍀

The Ancient Order of Hibernians was founded in New York in 1836, on the steps of old St James Church, in years when nativist mobs menaced Catholic churches and Irish newcomers were shut out of decent work. Its members stood guard over those churches, paid sick benefits and burial costs when a working man fell, and helped the newly landed find a job, a room, and a friendly face. For many an immigrant family it was the first hand of help they ever met in the New World. 🙏

Was there a parish society, a sodality, or an order like the Hibernians that your own family leaned on when they first came over?
