]]> The good trade relations between Ireland and Biscay, based on fishing activity, meant that Irish immigration to Biscay began to gain importance from 1600 onwards. The connection between the two territories was reinforced decades later when the Hispanic Monarchy supported the Irish cause against England; this dynamic led to the settlement of Irish exiles in the north of the Iberian Peninsula. Thus, in the mid-17th century, there was an increase in the number of Irish baptisms registered in Biscay caused, according to the author, by the English army’s occupation of Ireland between 1649 and 1653. Many Irish nobles were stripped of their property and expelled from their lands due to their Catholic religious status and sought to settle in the commercial ports of their usual networks. At the end of the 17th century, the level of births and marriages fell due to the policy of appeasement shown by James II. After the loss of the throne of the last English Catholic monarch, the 18th century saw the great Irish migration to Biscay.

]]> The resource shows the geographical mobility of the servants to rural towns such as Jorquera and Casas Ibáñez, in the current province of Albacete. During the years of the Cadastre of the Ensenada, the basic mobility was registered in servants coming from the region of the State of Jorquera, where both municipalities are located. In a radial fashion, the further away from the interior, the less strong the power of attraction; thus the province of Cuenca and the Kingdoms of Valencia and Murcia nourished this group in decreasing numbers. Finally, it was the northern areas of the peninsula that were the last to incorporate labour force to Jorquera and Casas Ibáñez. This general tendency of the population to move from north to south in search of work and new opportunities was, as the author points out, a constant during the Modern Age.
