Ireland
in its ancient glory |
The
original Founding Fathers: Chief Joseph, Sitting Bull Geronimo, Red Cloud |
Quite recently, I've been uncovering my family's heritage, and it's a fascinating one. As the ring on the menu says, "I am of Ireland" and so is my family. Well, my father's side at any rate. Speficially, the Ulster province (in red). I've always wondered why I was fascinated by the ancient Celts and their culture. This might interest you: | Mom's side of the family
is rooted in
Virginia, and as far as I have been able to ascertain, I am 1/4th or
1/8th Cherokee and Arapaho. I'm currently researching more
here,
but I'm very proud of both sides of my family. And sometimes
I
am sickened by the atrocities committed against our ancestors by the
European settlers. |
