Please tell me they [the Parisi] were not of the detestable Frogs.They may well have been their predecessors. The Parisi were just one of very many different Celtic tribes (and sub-tribes) which inhabited all of Northwest Europe, including England. They went by dozens of names, with a number of them in a large cluster known as the Celtic "Germanic" tribes. (Not to necessarily be confused with modern day Germans, many of whom have Slavic roots instead of Celtic.)
This is an interesting Celtic site.

The English have a significatn portion of French blood -- after all they were conquered by a French duke in 1066 and had large sections of France until the War of the Roses. tHe English barons also invited Prince Louis of France to conquer England during teh rule of King John in 1220.
