Interesting email from an Irish fellow about Irish kilts.

A number of "Irish" family names are actually "Old English"; i.e. settlers in Ireland who came over after the Norman invasion. Over time, the "Old English" and Normans were assimilated into the larger Irish society.

Lets not forget the plantations of the late 1600's early 1700's. Lots of Scots were brought over, as well as some English.
