President Biden's maternal great-great-grandfather Owen Finnegan departed Carlingford in County Louth in the late 1840s to travel to America.
Among his great-grandparents was Edward Blewitt, who left the West Coast town of Ballina in County Mayo in 1850 to emigrate to the US.
He settled in Scranton in Pennsylvania as the devastating Irish potato famine was causing widespread starvation.
Mr Biden was given a tour of Carlingford Castle alongside the Tánaiste (Irish Deputy Prime Minister ) Micheal Martin .

Commenting on the wet weather, he added: " It's fine, it's Ireland. "
The US president will also visit the Border Town of Dundalk, where he is expected to greet crowds along Clanbrassil Street.
In The Coming days he is due to speak to politicians at the Oireachtas (Irish parliament) and visit more relatives in Ballina.
