    They just don't in Britain though and that's the problem.

    Northern and Central Europe. English and German, maybe some Irish or Scottish. If we go back very far then apparently Denmark and Norway since my family name came from vikings that settled in the British Isles.

    My family is all from Abruzzo, but their towns were razed during the 2nd WW and they were evacuated by the German-Italian troops northernmore (in South Tyrold and in Marche that were still under nazis). So now we live who in Abruzzo, who in Marche, who in Bozen, and some others went to New York and Sydney.

    So we are from,

    Pescara



    Ascoli Piceno



    Bozen



    Sydney



    I feel no particular link with New York as I have never been there.

    They do mix to some extent in England and Western Scotland but it's usually English or Scottish + Irish, there's not some English+Welsh+Scottish+Irish melting pot as there is in former colonies. The ethnicities are still basically separate.

    The Irish were accepted by the English and Scots over there? Weird. In Canada they were treated like garbage (slave labour) for a hundred years and sent to live with the frogs.

    Why would good protestants accept the Irish who were socio-economically, and historically lower than them and a different religion? I am quite curious as to how that happened.
