My Ancestors - The Anglo-Celts


The Scotch-Irish were once the Scot borderers in the British Isles... They fought the English for generations... The pilgrims who fled to Plymouth Rock maintained a similar world view... but with one difference. The Scots were still a rural, and for some centuries, a warrior race. ...these Anglo-Celts abandoned a world in Europe they at heart hated. They were Israelites leaving Egypt. ...children must first sever their umbilical cords before they can stand alone. Those who would rather remain in Egypt tend to make poor pioneers. ~T. R. Fehrenbach - Lone Star
