where do you think those red-headed Irish came from? ... You should check out the DNA project
In fact, I have two cousins (out of ten) who have red hair.
I've been a member of Family Tree DNA for almost 5 years, including three projects, all Irish.
Did you have a specific project in mind?

something like this?

http://www.dnaancestryproject.com/ydna_intro_howto.php

I figured when the Olympic squads from Norway Sweden and Denmark walked the stadium last week, we kinda knew what Vikings looked like

The Vikings took some of the best-looking woman slaves from Saxony and the British isles back with them- which may have diluted the genes of those heavy jawed masculine looking Viking females described in the article!

Strange but I saw a show this week where Asian DNA (all of Asia, China, India, Russia, Kazakhstan) was sampled and 1 of every 200 men tested traced back to a single probably Mongol ancestor, Ghengis Khan

Wonder if the Vikings had an equivalent super sperm spreader?
