Um yeah, would rather not...besides his personality (or lack thereof) he's far too 'pasty looking' for my tastes.
Although his once orange hair might have made him popular in Ulster.
And on that front, there's good news and then some bad news...
The family of Donald Trump, the President of the United States, is a prominent American family active in real estate, entertainment, business, and politics. Trump's immediate family circle is the First Family of the United States. They are part of the broader Trump family originating from Germany. Donald Trump's mother, Mary Anne MacLeod, came from the hebridean Island of Lewis, off the west coast of Scotland. Trump has five children (between three wives) and nine grandchildren.
Not to soil the scholarly efforts of this thread, but I have always been confused on what exactly a Scotch-Irish pedigree is.
One side of my family has a recorded Coat of Arms in Ireland, and is recorded as being Scotch-Irish there in Mayo. County Mayo is said to be where the clan (one of many names that means 'descendant of Fergus' who for some reason is said to be a mythical warrior even though he has descendants ) formed, in a town that ages ago disappeared from County Mayo.
I have read where the Scotch-Irish were Irish people that for whatever reason went to Scotland for several decades, then up and went back to Ireland for several more decades. I have also read this in the reverse - originally Scottish moving to Ireland, and so on. I find it amusing that I have also read where the French called all the people from the entire British Isles 'Scotti', meaning Irish.
Is the history of these people really as nomadic as it seems? Why were they constantly on the move?
Is there a good, easy to follow resource of the history of the Scotch-Irish?
Thanks.
