Poor Irish Family

A poor Irish family in front of their scalp, a sod house dug into the earth. In 1849 citizens of Keillines still suffered under severe poverty despite the newly enacted "Poor Laws" in Great Britain. The potato famine of a few years previous ruined many families. (Photo by © CORBIS/Corbis via Getty Images)
