Scottish emigration to America came in two streams-one direct from the motherland and the other through the province of Ulster in the north of Ireland. Those who came by this second route are usually known as Ulster Scots, or more commonly as Scotch-Irish, and they have been claimed as Irishmen by Irish writers in the United States. This is perhaps excusable but hardly just. Throughout their residence in Ireland the Scots settlers preserved their distinctive Scottish characteristics, and generally described themselves as the Scottish nation in the north of Ireland.
