There are three types of Scot. Highlander, Border Reiver and Lowlander. My blood-line is mixed. Highland (MacDonald Of The Isles, McNiel of Barra) and Border Reivers (Armstrong) with ancient lineage from Ulster. Those low-land cunts in between are fucking pre-season practice during the occasional nasty out-break of peace with our other nieghbours.

Check out "Waterloo" on youtube. When the 92d Highlanders were told to advance "your Bastards" while the main line of Wellingtons Army were preparing to move their Commander said "they'll hold, take your time"... the advance of the Highlanders is chilling to behold.

My family, the Hepburns, started out as a Border family, but moved north and ended up in Orkney. We were intimately involved in certain historical Scottish events, although it was never proven that James Hepburn actually killed Lord Darnley to marry Mary Stuart, and I think that was what precipitated the move to the Islands. I've traced my own line back to the mid-1700s on Shapinsay so I know for a fact I'm an Orcadian, although we're NOT Highlanders - they're south of us!

Ich bin Deutscher!!!!!

I've got Kraut in me as well. One lived in Germany, and decided one day to answer the call for mercenaries by the Dutch East India Company to the East Indies and Ceylon. We know the name of the ship, ship's captain, the dates of the trip - from Texel, Holland to Colombo, Ceylon. It took six month in 1760. His name was David Hendrik Estrop, he started as a corporal and became a lieutenant, I think he was in for over twenty years - closer to thirty. His descendants are all over Malaysia and Singapore.

Then there is the one from Sint Niklaas in the Flemish or Walloon part of Belgium. He (Franz Van Geyzel) traveled from there to Colombo as well - a century earlier than Estrop. He then married the daughter of a Genoan merchant family - Suzanah Pegalotti. The Van Geyzel descendant and the Estrop descendant then married in the end of the 19th century.

I don't know specifics except I'm Scotch/Irish/Welsh/English and am told my dad's side came to the New World in the 1640's and I'm a direct descendant of Admiral Lord Nelson on my mom's side.

I'm Scot-Irish. My ancestors left Scotland between the late 1500's-early 1600's and went to Ireland. Came to America 1740's.

I' a mutt. I've gots all kinds of stuff in my background. Welsh, Irish, English, German. Might even be 1/32 Cherokee (does that make me a "man of color"?)

[Para-327th]

I'm adopted. They told us that I was also a mix but I could have just as easily been hatched, not born.

[RH]

There can be only one!

I don't have any Scot in me, but my mother did.
