I’ve read about this, and there just a handful, if that. Three or four only.

Four were born Ireland alone: Pierce Butler, South Carolina; James McHenry, Maryland; William Paterson, New Jersey; Thomas Fitzsimons, Pennsylvania.

Plus that bastard Hamiliton (literally) was born in the West Indies. James Wilson, Pennsylvania, was born in Scotland. I believe that is 6, out of the total of 40 or 15%. Hardly just a "handfull".
