Probably because of the abundance of relatives; there was a great increase in the population, which is why the Famine hurt Ireland so badly. Back then, many women had children young. The mathematics of it: If #1 gives birth to #2 when she is fourteen, and # 2 gives birth to #3 when she is fourteen as well, #1 is a grandmother at the age of twenty-eight. If #3 gives birth at 14, #1 is a great-grandmother at the age of 42. If #4 gives birth at 14, #1 is now a great-great grandmother at the age of 56. If #5 gives birth at 14, #1 i a great-great-great grandmother at the age of 70. And if #6 gives birth at 14, #1 is a great-great-great-great grandmother at the age of 84, if she lives that long. This is assuming that the children are all girls. Even if they were males, the boys would likely have married young and their wives produced children/
