Certain census districts/wards for various census years in the U.S. have listed the birthplaces of resident immigrants. Usually
this was only the county, but sometimes the censustaker took the time to show the city as well. I have seen this already in Savannah in 1860 but this past week I was able to use a database which showed me every person with a Clare birth for each forename which I inputted. I had time to the following names. Note that the marital status is not indicated in the simple listing that I consulted, so these are likely not maiden names for the women.

Re: Clare-born in Savannah, Georgia
I had an opportunity to use a database showing gravestone information from cemeteries in Savannah GA. Contact me if you need the exact citation. This information is re-arranged and does not appear as it did in the database.
