Unfortunately, if the data recorded at Ellis Island only included Ireland as place of origin, that means people will have to do more research before they attach their people or at the very least contact the existing tree creator.
Or could you create a pop up warning that states < This family did not emigrate!<
My kin stayed in Ireland and I am getting attachments being added willy nilly and am being expected to help find the ancestor's rightful origins. I don't have time to do this. One particular family has attracted at least six false relatives and it is frustrating and time-consuming.
