I always wondered if that quote applied to American states. I could be a Virginian who was born in Ohio, but how far back does it go? It's really and truly a moot point. I don't think I've had a purebred in the line since the 1800s, but even that Irish man had a "mixed marriage" with an English woman.

It's not even remotely similar, Scots and Irish have been intermixing for thousands of years, even before there was such a thing as a Scot or Irishman, if you want to talk about colonists, Scotland itself was colonized by the Irish, it was Irish colonization that directly led to the extermination of Pictish culture.
And it isn't claims, intermarriage is verifiably backed up by records, I don't think there was much danger of the Scot planters romanticizing the Irish in the way that Americans romanticize the native Americans.
