Ann where did your Hamiltons come from? Laura

Ann, I've lost my article re the BlackIrish/Indian - I was searching the Choctaw nets plus Ok/IT/AR - It narrated the horrible conditions the indians had with the white people - it was better to be part Black than part Indian; also, stated that the Choctaws were one of the largest contributors to the Irish Potatoe Famine. If you are Irish, then a must reading is "The Study of the Irish Race by Mac Manus" also, the "Scotch-Irish by Leyburn" and of course "the myth of the Black Irish" "http://www.hypertext.com/BlackIrish.html" My personal opinion is "Black Irish/Dutch" are both concoctions of USA. Ireland's relationship with the Spanish go back to the 3-400s AD - I don't believe a few Spanish sailor boys could taint (!?) the Irish Race. My opinion, of course. :-) Ken Hamilton/Sparks Baker, Santa Maria, CA lakeary5@cs.com wrote: > Ann where did your Hamiltons come from?
