them there's green eyes. (Which all right-thinking, good-hearted Irish should have.) Being down there in Texas as you are it's understandable that you wouldn't know this....but *real* Irish almost universally have (very) fair skin,freckles and red or strawberry blonde hair.I know because my family is as Irish as they come and with the exception of a couple of "black Irish" (with green eyes),we all fit the description I gave above.
But then,we're not usually thought of as right thinking or good hearted. ;-)

How do fair skin, freckles, and red (or strawberry-blonde) hair exclude green eyes? :)
(I'm Irish. I am neither right-thinking nor good-hearted, but I do have green eyes.)

I think most Texans of Irish decent are Black Irish and this one has blue/hazel eyes, much like my Brothers and Father.
