My husbands family came from Waterford to NFLD in 1790. They are so Irish in speak & ways. Been to NFLD 18 times. Everyone should visit. Gods country.

Nice to see recognition from Ireland, thought you forgot about us.

To he honest we think about you all the time. It is on my bucket list to visit Newfoundland or as the Irish people called it "Talamh an Éisc" Even if I've never been there I feel connected to it in Song , Dance, Story and in accent.

Thanks Maxine Mo Chara, Grew Up in Trepassey on The Irish Loop and Our Family came from Waterford area in The Early Eighteen Hundreds.Thanks.

My ancestors were from Waterford, left for Newfoundland about 1800

When I was in Ireland, I was in a book store and the clerk said to me, I can't place your accent. What part of Ireland are you from..... My Mom and I laughed and told her we were Newfoundlanders. We are not as Irish as the Avalon, more British accent with an Irish lilt. Accents in Newfoundland vary greatly.

Great connection b/t NL and Ireland. My ancestors hail from Waterford on my mother side and from Letrium on my fathers side. I grew up in Newfoundland on the Southern Shore in a little fishing village called Trepassey. Ireland is on my bucket list..

My 3x great-grandfather, left Carrick-on-Suir for Tilting, NL around 1800. His wife's father (from Waterford) settled in Tilting in the mid-1700s. Their grandson left Tilting (for Boston) in the late 1800s.

They settled directly in Tilting, did they? Fogo Island is a very English-settled part of NL, I believe. I always thought that all the people's families came from further south in NL and migrated to Fogo Island. Tilting people had a different accent, more Irish than the other people on Fogo, even the other Roman Catholics in Fogo and Joe Batt's Arm.

Ye haven't lost the Irish accent much over there, still used the word boy with is associated with South Tipp, waterford and Cork

Interesting vid, thanks for sharing!

I love it ❤️

Very well said

Well done

And the word "boy" immigrated as well

where did the Barry's come from in Ireland?

Just a shame shes not actually standing on the north quays, shes on the south quays.. Incredible someone is talking about waterford who doesn't even know what side of the river she is on!!😂
