Oops, I started this thread and forgot to mention my own origins. So here goes.On the paternal side I'm Irish (O'Leary)and on my mothers side they all originally came from Scotland (Ross) to Ireland in the 18th Century.They were a family of Protestant ministers. The Scots side of the family produced many fine Irish traditional musicians, malodeon players, singers and pipers.One of the last generation made records in the days of the 78.One of this generation is a well known recording artist, in the pop and trad field here in Ireland.Me?, I can carry a tune, sea shantys mainly.
