An Gorta Mór: The Great Irish Famine
This map appears on p. xx of Christine's Kinealy's This Great Calamity.
The reproduction is not great, but you should be able to identify
the counties by using the map in conjunction with the list below.


Ireland has 32 counties divided among 4 provinces.  The provinces are: 
   Ulster (North)
   Leinster (East)
   Munster (South)
   Connaught (West)

Ulster has 9 counties:           

    Antrim (Aontrim)                        
    Armagh (Ard Mhacha)   
    Cavan* (An Cabhan)
    Donegal* (Dun na nGal)
    Down (An Dun)
    Fermanagh (Fear Manach)
    Londonderry [Derry] (Doire)
    Monaghan* (Muineachan)
    Tyrone (Tir Eoghain)
                                      
The three Ulster counties marked by asterisks are parts of the Republic 
of Ireland.  The remaining six constitute Northern Ireland, which is
presently part of the United Kingdom.

Irish nationalists prefer to call Londonderry by its original name,
Derry.
