Thanks Don.
I was interested because I am tracing my heritage and trying to continue where Dad left off. My Mum's ancestors were, by coincidence, from County Cork but emigrated to Australia when others went to America and they said they were Irish Australians, despite generations being born in Australia. All are passed now sadly. My Dad's ancestors stop at my paternal great grandfather as they were romany gypsies, from France, who settled in Wales, and as Dad said had a faster bike/ horse than the Welsh did!
I call myself a Welsh Australian when pushed, alto' I could easily describe myself as coming from Irish Gypsy stock and was interested in how people see them selves, nation-wise!

Music too was a great part of my early life all sitting round the piano singing from an early age. Mum also tried to teach me the didgeridoo, with little success and Dad the violin much to my neighbours distress LOL. So settled on piano and then guitar.
Thanks for the info
