    I would guess the vast majority claiming Irish heritage would be “famine” Irish descendents. Those families are big into Erin go Bra and “top of the morning to ya” references. And of course The Quiet Man image of Ireland. Now, because of forces like U2, the web, and newer films about Irish life, the diddle diddle factor is being updated. Kind of a fresh look at I.

    One of the Dublins has nothing to do with Ireland and was named because of two Inns in the town as in Double Inn.

    Irish people living abroad have much more pride, respect and appreciation for their language, culture and history.
    Irish Americans have more pride than we do.
