Throughout history we were all taught that the noble Scottish, Welsh and Irish came from the “Celts” and that the English were invading “Anglo Saxons”.
However there have been some studies in recenet years [try googling 'stephen oppenheimer'] that traces the ‘Y’ chromosone gene [basically the male line, from father to father to father and on and on] and found that the vast majority of English are genetically the same tribes that inhabited the UK and Ireland before the Anglo-Saxons AND the Celts invaded.
In the southern and eastern parts of England the people are slighty related to this tribe because invaders CHANGED the gene of the English by taking wives etc
How do Irish Americans feel about this? Particularly aimed at the Irish-Americans who believed the English to be another race.
