I found out a few years ago I have a Scottish relative who moved from Virginia to Ohio just prior to the Civil War.
For whatever reason I’ve always admired Scottish Nationalism and culture—now I know why!
My mother is from Spain. The Northwestern corner of Spain called Galicia (Gaelic) is heavily Celtic in ethnicity. While I don’t have any relatives from there, I do know that the culture is very “Ibero-Celtic”.
There are many modern artists who use bag-pipes in their music from Galicia. Cristina Pato is one of them and her music is awesome.
My daughter spent a summer in Galicia with a host family . . . she enjoyed it very much, and who knows, the Celtic connection may have helped!
