Well the irish Immigration came in three waves. The first and second "wave" came after 1717. Then the last (3rd) wave was in the mid 19th century (1840s). But the majority of the Irish Immigration was during the 1800s. From about 1841-1850 the U.S recorded 780,719 Irish immigrants. The number is a rough calculation but its probably close.

Why did Irish immigrants want slavery?
Most Irish people did not want slavery. The Irish culture teaches a respect for all human beings. Some Irish immigrants fought for the south with the agreement that their entire family could become citizens if one man of the family joined the Confederate Army. (New York and Baltimore did the same to attract Irish immigrants and fill draft quotas). Some Irish immigrants (like some of many other cultures) were attracted to the slave-keeper mentality because of profit motivations or because they wanted to dominate others the way that England had dominated Ireland for centuries. But keep in mind that most Irish immigrants (and most immigrants from other poor lands) did not want slavery.
