There's no such thing as "Scots-Irish" or "Ulster Scots". Your forebears may have been ethnically cleansed so the Scottish lowlands were more profitable for the big landowners but you are just Irish after centuries of your people living there. The "Scots" thing is sectarian bullshit pushed and encouraged by the English to divide and rule Ireland.

I have found what you say to be true. I have traced back all of my family to either Northern Germany, Northern France, Scotland, Ulster, and Sweden. The common-thread being Protestantism. And more interestingly, if you look at haplotype map of Europe and you can easily tell that religion ran on tribal lines. People are so secular these days they forget why they are here. We are escaping the hordes of agrarian invaders, the story goes back to pre-Roman Thrace. The agrarian invaders tend to be collectivist. The hunter-gatherer types are independent. This also shows up today in our attitudes about Brexit, etc. Bonns and Boones are also of that stock. But he will have real royal blood before the dragons took over.

Distrusting all forms of government and religious Authority but developing of a greater reliance for family through shared heritage is one of the most American things I've ever heard of.

Border Scots who were too troublesome for the Scots & English crowns so they were deported to Ulster to colonize the predominantly Roman Catholic Irish. Some are still there: Ian Paisley was one, by religion, name and attitude toward the RC Irish. Jackson, Wilson, Nixon, Johnson, check their family trees.

What did the Irish do to be last in everything

This is all ancient history folks! Ok we all want to know our ancestry, but whether it`s Ireland, Scotland, Wales or England does it matter today? England could never have had an empire if not for the Irish, Scottish and Welsh they were the frontline soldiers of the English army, still are today. Religion didn`t come into it until after the English civil war, and it`s the poor who were transported with the promise of free land, it happened in all of the new world at the time first America and later Australia so called criminals and the poor. But if you go even further back when the Irish were raiding southern England and Wales and bringing slaves back to Ireland, which is where Saint Patrick the patron saint of Ireland supposedly comes from, begs the question who invaded who first? What we should remember whether we are English, Irish Welsh or Scottish is that we have a rich and colourful history, we are seperated from mainland Europe by the seas, but we have the influence of the Celts, Romans, Normans and the Vikings in our cultures, we only passed that on to the new worlds

When making statements such as the Irish are actually German, French, etc... You must be careful not to confuse nationalities with genetic origins. It has become much more important to unlocking who we all really are to look at genetic mutation in y-haplogroups rather than national/ethno-linguistic/tribal identities.

Ulster Scots ancestry myself. You missed one path westward from Winchester, Va through northern West Virginia through the corner of Western Maryland and back into West Virginia ending at about the intersection of the Cheat River and the Pennsylvania border. Your folklorist is pushing an out dated view. The route I described facilitated an early industrial cattle operation extending from Winchester, Va over the mountains and down the river system to the Scioto River Valley.

@Reginastar28 No, the Portugese brought them to Brazil. They were enslaved in Africa by other Africans. Usually there was tribal warfare in Africa and the winner of the war would bring the conquered people to the sea ports to sell them to the Portugese. But the Portugese never went into Africa to enslave anybody, they just bought them at the ports and they were already in chains. The Portugese never left the ship.

My family history says our Clan of that ilk were supposed to land to the North but the British themselves occupied the homes and lands displaced to what was later named Pennsylvania by a committee which the Dunlaps attended the naming ceremony. The Scottish rights were accredited with starting the rebellion possibly influenced by the Magna Carta. The clan system stopped the Roman advance into Scotland's past. Two walls such was their fear of what was to be known as berserkers

Interesting video on the Scottish-Irish people of the Americas. The comments below are pretty extreme though. There really is little difference between Irish and Scottish people and Scotch-Irish, all are mixed Gaelic/Pictoceltic with Nordic-Norman-English influence. The Scots-Irish were poor people from towns in Scotland, whose ancestors had changed to English earlier, who had lost their tribal ties - similarly to some townlands of Mexico where people are mostly native but think of their ancestry as Spanish - but the Scots Irish had absorbed various a different religious culture and were granted land in the free areas of Ireland to defend the new status quo - this was the strategy to keep Scotland subdued, and it worked for centuries. The plantations didn't work very well, and life was harsh for everyone. I believe that nowadays all 9 counties of Ulster are populated mostly from the Irish tradition, with the exception of just Belfast. However, people aren't very religious any more. As one poster pointed out - the Irish look ape-like, and I would say that yes of course we do, all the Irish, Scottish, Scots-Irish and all other nationalities have strong ape-like characteristics, since we all descend from a common ape-like ancestor.

Its all about the right political decision for the right scenario. The acts enabling religious persecution of Presbyterians in Ireland were eventually repealed and the Scot's Irish saw alliance with the crown as safer than alliance with the natives.Although in 1798 the Scot's Irish were involved in a rebellion against the crown. Its all politics e.g. the Irish who had previously rebelled against the crown fought for the Stewart kings in the 1600s.Scots Irish and the Irish fought Cromwell 1649.

Scots are people. Scotch is whiskey.

Like every other historical account of the Scots-Irish you have completely left out the SPOWs sent to New England in 1651-1652. Their frontier was Maine.

16:25 I don’t think “cabin” is a scots Irish word 🤔 sounds of Latin origin

We do know for certain that some American historians of the late 19th Century invented the label "Scotch Irish", they created the term for anyone who was Irish or known of Ireland but not of the recent poor and often diseased famine Irish. What we don't generally know is how these historians could have possibly made such connections and conclusions relying only on evidence! They could not have actually studied or attempted a study of the historical resources of the time period or earlier periods - more commonly known as the study of history. Because contrary to the simple tales from these 19th century American historians (who were clearly looking to separate past Irish emigrants, with the newer hungry poor masses of more recent Irish). We know many if not most of the Irish in America before the 'famine' Irish were still Irish, few to none earlier labelled themselves as scots Irish or any other such nonsense.

There were no political entities such as scotland or Ireland 10,000 tears ago,a wandering people from central europe migrated through germany,france,england,scotland,and then to ireland(all modern entities).So by unionist reasoning if all Irish are scots,then all scots are english,all french are german and so on.It was the political and religous climate of the last 600 years that has most influenced who we are today.Ulster scots dialect is a recent invention.

The scotch should let the Irish alone

Respectfully, I disagree. I'm 3rd generation Appalachian [app-uh-LATCH-in] My heritage is a proud mix of Scottish, Irish, and Cherokee - Echota [E-co-ta] band of Northeast Alabama. I'm grateful to all 3 groups for fighting to settle and remain here; learning to live together as Americans and making my life possible. If you'd ever been called a 'hick', 'white trash', 'racist redneck', or 'inbred hillbilly' [all demeaning hate-fueled terms], you might find them more annoying than 'Scots-Irish'.

When I hear "Scotch"-Irish, it makes my ears bleed. Scotch is a drink. These people were Scots-Irish. And I guess it bears repeating, they weren't Irish. They were Scottish Protestants in Ireland.

First Class Protestants were the Church of England and the Plantation of Ulster with Scots Farmers and Laborers had to be non-catholic but Presbyterians were treated as 2nd class protestants. The best lands that were confiscated by the English Crown from the Irish Catholic Landomners went to North English Nobles.

The Welsh settled in America many years before the Scots or Irish. Most of the men that signed the Declaration of Independence were of Welsh descent. On the Lincoln Memorial in Washington is carved the Welsh language, "Cymru am Byth" which means Wales for Ever.

That may be true, but there's always more to the story. :) If you google about Irish child slavery to the southern US planters, there's a widespread and ugly story there. And on a different note - they recently found Irish influence and culture in a native Canadian tribe from some unknown previous time. Another one to be googled...

But there was an Ulster. My grandfather always referred to himself as an Ulsterman, and British. He was never from Northern Ireland or England. His parents were murdered by Sinn Fein in 1918 so he and his brothers left the old country - three to Kentucky and two to New Zealand.

Gary O'Driscoll thanks for making contact. My father told me that every Christmas Eve my grandad would walk along to the local Catholic Church (St Mary’s here in Hastings, New Zealand) and have fellowship with all the Irish folk there. They would have a great time. My Dad said it was the only time he would see his father come home late, a little under the weather. He had a very broad Irish accent. Well, I am impressed that none of those early migrants to New Zealand brought any religious animosity with them. Certainly, contrary to what Rev. Paisley said, I don’t think the prejudice ran very deep.

Why? Most protestant people in Ulster (Scots-Irish in US) are English descent. Duh!

As well. But majority is English descent. And now they're Irish.

The Irish have distinct facial features, not to be confused with the Scots who are burly.

Scotch is a drink, Laddies. A common mistake.

It is the Scots-Irish not the Scotch that was drank in Scotland. They were Scots that migrated to America. They were Ulster Scots.

I should add that Scots and the Ulster scots dialect have offical status."But it has been claimed that the recent "Ulster-Scots language and heritage cause has been set rolling only out of a sense of cultural rivalry among some Protestants and unionists, keen to counter-balance the onward march of the Irish language movement".If Scotinulster contends that there is no truth in the preceding satement,I will respect his position.

It's "SCOTS-Irish" not Scotch, that a whisky.
