Robert,
From 1848 - 1950 over 6 million adults and children emigrated from Ireland - over 2.5 million departed from Cobh, making it the single most important port of emigration.

Cobh, County Cork, Ireland was a port in Ireland where the ships departed. Rose Devlin was probably from another county in Ireland.
