The very earliest recorded habitation of the island now known as Ireland were people from Scotland who settled Mountsandel in the very Northeastern tip of Ulster.

The first recorded major influx of people from Ireland into Scotland were the victims of the Great Famine of the 19th century, where they settled mainly in parts of Glasgow and surrounding areas outside Glasgow.
