Looks like they're going to take away Columbus Day and give us a day named after a guy whose name we can't pronounce.

So is it possible the Welsh pre-date the Indians, and lay claim to a bit of casino land...?

Wilson and Blackett were also commissioned to produce a detailed genealogy of the Bush family by former President George Bush (senior).

That final sentence is peculiar. These guys sound like experts in Welsh and Arthurian history, what's the connection to the Bush family?

Near Fort Mountain State Park in North Georgia, there are remains of stone walls, long and built low. Legend has it a white race built them hundreds of years ago. They eventually disappeared, one theory is that they were killed off by Indians. The web site identifies the walls as built by Indians, but the signs in the park identify the builders as white-skinned and fair-haired.

Isn't this in the Book of Mormon?

What a kick in the a** if that's all really true!

Hmmm, given your "name," I suspect you to be quite proximate the the land of places named Llllllllemyrghryhyaderithoroglyth or some such! ;), it ain't but a few miles from the Mersey. But I digress...

I hope these discoveries are bona fide because it will add even more ammunition to the arsenals of those of us who want to resist the multicultaralisation of the USA. At our roots, we are a British land. British culture has always been the essence of our core values and system. Granted, we were borne out of rebellion, but the rebellion was of British men against fellow British men. At the end of the day, we must not forget from whence we have come.

Mad Doc - like the Dog river in Alabama which used to be called the Maddog river. Supposedly named for Madoc. Mobile bay being where he landed
ap is just Son of like Mac in Irish or Scotts
Owain - Oh Wine
Gwynedd - the tough one Gwin edth - the dd is a ddddhhhh sound
Like Button Gwynett - signer of the declaration of independence another Welshman
More Welshmen signed the declaration than any other extraction. You can keep Columbus Day too, even though he swore he had discovered India and refused to set foot on the mainland.
