"You could see Irish emigration today as a safety valve against dissent toward the Irish establishment in its current form."
For Elinor O'Donovan, researching her great-great-great-great-grandaunt Charlotte Grace O'Brien – the Limerick botanist who campaigned for better conditions for Irish emigrant women in the 1800s and spearheaded the founding of the Mission of Our Lady of the Rosary boarding house for women in New York – has been a thought-provoking journey encompassing questions about identity, the symbolic representation of womanhood through flowers, and how the large Irish diaspora in the United States views its origin stories.
