Talk:Samuel Brady

Brady was Irish not scots Irish
The surnames Brady, McCune, McCormick and Quigley are all Irish surnames, Brady only ever refereed to himself as Irish not scots-Irish nor did any of his ancestors and there is no evidence of Bradys/Grandfather-grandmother being of scottish origin. Brady is derived from the Irish surname Ó Brádaigh or Mac Brádaigh, It's very very unlikely that ulster scots The scots Irish Identity didn't exist until the 19th century long after these people had passed away, planters wouldn't have adopted Irish surnames as it was illegal for Irish Catholics to marry Scots and English protestant and Presbyterian colonists, instead it's far more likely that Bradys ancestors adopted the Presbyterian religion in order to increase their social status — Preceding unsigned comment added by 51.37.132.42 (talk) 10:46, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
