CLANN MHIC GRIANNA
 Feictear
i ndaonáireamh na hAlbain 2001 go bhfuil 55,000 daoine a
rugadh in Éirinn anois ina gcónaí in Albain
agus go bhfuil oidhreacht Éireannach á mhaíomh
ag an chúigiú chuid de muintir na hAlbain ina iomlán.
Ní ionadh ar bith é gur de bhunadh Thír Chonaill
céatadán mór den líon seo . Bhog Clann
Mhic Grianna ó Ghlaschú go Rann na Feirste, ar ais
go dtí áit dhúchais Jimí.
Anseo ar Blas tugann Jimí, a bhean Patricia agus a iníon
Michelle cuntas iontach ionraic dúinn ar thaithí s'acu
d'imirce ó Albain go Tír Chonaill...
The 2001 census revealed the 55,000 people born in Ireland are
now residing in Scotland, and one fifth of the Scottish population
claim Irish descent. It wouldn’t be a surprise that a huge
percentage of these are from Donegal. Clann Mhic Grianna from Rann
na Feirste, Jimí, his wife Patricia and daughter Michelle
give a very honest and open account of upheaval and emigration from
Scotland to Ireland.
