No expert here, either, and I surely appreciate the history lesson. I am interested in Herron, but to quote an eminent man of a hundred years ago, "I have always thought a man born in Ireland of an Irish father is an "Irishman," for the same reason that a man born in France is a "Frenchman," or a man born in Italy is an "Italian," especially if his forebears were natives of the country for several generations."
"An Irishman may be. . . of the ancient race indigeneous to Ireland. . . or he may be of original Norman, Danish, English, or Scotch descent, but he is an "Irishman" just the same."
If I am off-track I apologize, with all due respect to a Fermanagh man.
