Native-born Protestant Americans distrusted and resented Irish immigrants for all of the following reasons except that the Irish immigrants were very slow to learn American English and mostly spoke Gaelic in their urban neighborhoods.
These immigrants, who were sometimes referred to as "Scotch-Irish," were driven out of Ireland by religious disputes, a lack of political autonomy, and deplorable economic conditions. They were drawn to America by the prospect of land ownership and greater religious freedom.
Educated and talented workers made up a large portion of Scotch-Irish immigration. Irish immigrants arrived in significant numbers in the US in the 1840s, but because of their financial situation, they were unable to migrate west and purchase land, so they remained in coastal cities.
Irish immigrants were viewed with suspicion and resentment by native-born Protestant Americans since they were perceived to be excessive drinkers and were initially economically unsuccessful in assimilating into American society due to their poverty.
Furthermore, a network of parochial schools built by the Irish immigrants helped advance and promote Catholicism in America.
