[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's no meaningful distinction between Scots Irish Americans and English Americans. It's not like in South Carolina you'll find an Scots Irish side of town, a Scots Irish lobby etc. Almost all people with Scots Irish ancestry also have English ancestry.[/quote] And just to add no cultural distinctions either. It's not like Scots-Irish have traditions that are explicitly recognized as Scots-Irish. It's not like there's a certain holiday that the Scots-Irish celebrate while the English families explain to their children who feel left out "we're an English family, not a Scots-Irish family." There's a weird myth though that upper class Southern patricians are of English ancestry while rural Southern yokels are Scots-Irish though.[/quote] What about the Orange parades? —descendant of both Orangemen and Irish Catholics [/quote] And like, toaster location is CRITICAL distinction.
