What is a Scot?
Is it an accident of birth and arbitrary legislation or is it where your familal roots are?
A first cousin had a Scots mother but settled in England. A second cousin's father married a Scot and settled in Scotland.
Until Genealogical research became so popular he always considered himself wholly Scottish but now realises his roots are deep seated south of the border in Cumbria.
My mother was born in India and I have feelings for India but I am half Irish and have been there only once.
In the three cases cited our fathers were all English for generations so our roots are indisputably English.
Unravelling the Scottish identity will not be easy.
