Pa. researchers unable to unearth Irish mass grave
The Irish immigrants building a stretch of railroad near Philadelphia in 1832 had been in the U.S. only a few weeks when they died - ostensibly of cholera - and were unceremoniously dumped in a mass grave. Their families never knew what happened to them. Nearly 180 years later, local researchers say they have a clearer picture of the men’s fate.
