Did any one in Ireland ever actually want to be united with the united kingdom?

Yes and some still want that to be the case. That is the whole basis for the problems in Ireland and why we have Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland in existence now. The majority in Northern Ireland did not want to be separate to the United Kingdom. Many people in Northern Ireland do not want that. In the same way there would be some in the Republic of Ireland that would favour Ireland being fully in the United Kingdom, though it would be a small amount. It is predominantly people who live in Northern Ireland that would hold that view, known as Loyalists or Unionists. The Nationalist or Republicans, who make up a large amount of the population in Northern Ireland, though still a minority overall, want a fully united Ireland free of the United Kingdom. This difference of opinion, mixed in with other social issues, led to the conflicts in Northern Ireland since it came into being, most notably from the lat 1960s to the early 1990s.
