My sept, the O'Dubhda, are directly descended from this man.

I have a letter, written about 100 years ago in New Brunswick by an "Irish relative, claiming Viking ancestry.

These people migrated from Scotland to Northern Ireland, and then to north America.

Mine from Londonderry to Massachusetts (1718) to New Hampshire to Maine to Nova Scotia to New Brunswick to Minnesota (1856) to California (1928).

In the US we call them "Scots-Irish." In Britain and in Canada they call them "Ulster Irish."

Maybe they also descend from Irish nobility.

I always had my reasons to believe this to be true.
Thanks for posting the article.

If New York's Irish Claim Nobility, Science May Back Up the Blarney

Honeybabe, there is a difference between Nobility and Royalty.

Second nearly everyone with a European ancestor can claim a noble ancestor.

While the genetics are interesting the gingerbread is so much tripe.

Me great-greats on my dad's side were from County Cork.

Hmmmmmm, I wonder why it was named "Cork".

Please don't tell me, LOL.
