A thread for the true Scots / Irish here

So my mother got her DNA checked

She was 60% Irish, 40% Scottish

By default then, I’m sure I’m about the same - I.e. proper Scots / Irish Celtic man.

Only allowed to post in this thread if you are too.

 

Get to * ya bigot.



No place for anti British bigotry

 

My Grandfather on my fathers side is from Donegal, my mother is from Strabane, I was raised in Scotland, identify as Scottish with Irish roots.

 

Lol anyone else, we’ll cut off their heeds

True blood only in here

 

Surely this will depend on your da's DNA though as well?

I’m born in Glasgow but as I say the mother is 60% Irish
So Scottish, Irish roots

Just like our famous Quadruple Treble winning side

 

Unfortunately he passed away in 2005

 

What was his background?

(And sorry for your loss bud)

Thanks

He was 100 % Glaswegian

But my Mum’s saying both her maternal grandparents were 1st Gen Irish

 

Should this no be in the TC pub?

 

If yer maw was 60% Irish and yer da 100 Scottish that would make you closer 30/70 Scottish ya belter.

 

My mums side has Irish roots, my Dad's, Canadian.

Guess I'm a bit Thistles, Maple Leafed and Shamrocked.

 

Born in London, Welsh mother, Scottish Father, with Irish grandparents.

I AM GREAT BRITAIN!!!!

 

When I done the family tree thing all but one strand went back to the old country. One great great great grandparent born in Lanark (couldn't get back any further) but everything else back to Ireland.

* the Crown.

 

This is not inclusive and is therefore illegal

 

Just be aware that these commercial DNA tests can have discrepancies and aren’t totally accurate.

Family tree on my Mum’s side is Scottish as far back as I’ve seen it and Irish on my Dad’s side.

 

I'm a true Celtic man with proud Irish roots. My family come from Londonderry. My grandfather was there on * Sunday, says it was his best ever day in the parachute regiment.

 

Born in and raised in Scotland

Da was from Carnlough County Antrim as was both his Parents

Mum was from Scotland but with English and Italian heritage.

I would imagine a lot of the diaspora will have a mixed heritage as culture and traditions change. Even the Mafia in America no longer have a Sicilian purity rule. It’s just no feasible as everyone mates with anyone now a days.

Ma wains maws English. That would probably make them more Saxon than anything else but a teach them to be proud of there Surname and Irish roots.

 

So my grandfather was born in Scotland to Irish parents, before they returned to Ireland, my parents where both Irish does that make me Scots /Irish or does it have to be in a dna test load of bollix
