third one.. :)

Mary Ann Kennedy (Mairi Anna Nic Ualraig) was born and brought up in Glasgow in a Gaelic-speaking household. Her father was from the Isle of Tiree, and her mother, Kenna Campbell, one of the Campbell family of Greepe in the Isle of Skye, a family of singers and pipers.

We don't really have any theory of dark hair. The teuchter is stereotypically seen as fair, tall/strong & ruddy cheeked, with a red beard.

That's the common stereotype, on the other hand we have people who believe the Highlands are dark-ish. Anyways, if my sister gets fat when she gets old she will look somewhat similar to Mary Ann Kennedy. Actually she could it in my family, mainly on the father's side.

Aye, when I think of "Highlander" I think of him, mainly after his role in "Made of Honour". But there are sources that claim this:

The Highlander went barelegged and often barefooted, which caused the curious description of the Highlanders as "redshanked." This does not mean that they were red-haired. The true Highlander is predominantly DARK:

Mr. Pinkerton, who says that "in person the Lowlanders are TALL and LARGE, with FAIR COMPLEXIONS, and often with FLAXEN,YELLOW, and RED hair, and BLUE eyes: the grand features of the GOTHS in all ancient writers," adds, that "THE HIGHLANDERS ARE GENERALLY DIMINUTIVE, WITH BROWN COMPLEXIONS, AND ALMOST ALWAYS WITH BLACK CURLED HAIR AND DARK EYES."- Annals of the Caledonians, Picts, and Scots, by Joseph Ritson. Vol. II.W. & D. Laing, Edinburgh. 1828. Footnote p. 7. 27

1. Keltic Nordid
2. Keltic Nordid / Atlantid
3. Paleo-Atlantid
4. Keltic Nordid
5. Borreby + Atlantid.

These two Keltic Nordic looking strike me as close to my stereotype about British women ;)
I'd know
