Dear Guest, not every American is that well versed in who they are related to, and most would rather not go there.

Relations like fish, after a few days begin to pong and all that good old fashioned common sense.

But I am certain that many of the descendents of early Republican America would find some connection, however slender, to the *I*r*i*s*h* province of Ulster.

Isn't it a pity that the Scottish people, in all the places where they eneded up as well as at home, don't make more of their ancient Irish roots too?
