There were many ships that brought Irish immigrants to the USA. The most well-known was the Titanic. Third Class passengers were on the lower decks and did not have anywhere near the luxurious amenities that the First Class passengers had. After the Titanic sank some steerage passengers were rescued, along with other passengers, and eventually made it to the USA, but many more died.
