He was proud of being Irish wasn't he? More so than Scottish (his other nationality). Atheism is growing in Ireland the last few years and I wonder if he could know this how the Duke would feel about it.
share"Interestingly, most Americans with an Irish or Scotch/Irish heritage who do their research find that their lineage only passed through Ireland. The vast majority of those "Irish" immigrants that came to the US were no more than 2 generations removed from Scotland."
utter rubbish mate, I'm Irish born n bred btw
He was more English than Irish, so I can't imagine he would have much affinity for Ireland.....
