Bundoran is the town in Donegal where it all began for us. Still have some cousins there but we're not close.
That part of Ireland is strongly Scots. There was a kind of a shuttle thing going on between the two areas for centuries. It was especially active in the 1800s. A lot of Irish from there are really Scots transplants.

Interesting. My cousin is our family geneologist, I'll have to ask her. I havent been to the Island yet, hope to go next next with a local group going over for some golf and pub hopping. Will probably take a detour and do some family homework.
