Mission Statement
The Irish Interest Group of the SCGS
is dedicated to promoting interest in and supporting those who are researching
their Celtic heritage. This includes all whose ancestors ever lived in Ireland,
be they Anglo, Norman, or Scots-Irish. From the earliest times people came from
distant places to settle in Ireland. Many moved back and forth across the sea
periodically. When times were tough, many left Ireland and settled here in America
and Canada while others sailed to Australia and other places. It is our aim
to bridge the gap from our ancestors' world to our own. We welcome those whose
ancestors ever set foot in Ireland and stayed for even the shortest amount of
time.
