The “Fighting Ninth” Massachusetts
Infantry: Boston’s Irish American Regiment and the Civil War Wednesday, November 16, 2011, 6
PM Boston Public Library, Orientation Room. The Ninth Massachusetts Volunteer
Infantry was a unit of Irish Bostonians who chose to bear arms for the Union.
Boston's Irish American soldiers exhibited their loyalty to the United States
and acted as citizens, strengthening their identity as Americans in the
process. The wartime experiences of Irish Americans helped bring about
recognition of their full citizenship through naturalization, and also caused
the United States to pressure Britain to abandon its centuries-old policy of
refusing to recognize the naturalization of British subjects abroad. Presented by lawyer
Christian G. Samito, instructor at Boston College and Boston University
School of Law. http://www.bpl.org/news/local_family_history_series.htm
