Best Answer

The most research indicates the bulk of Irish people are descended from

settlers from an Ice Age refuge in the Pyrenees. Check out "Western Atlantic Modal Haplotype" for more info. The terms Celtic, Viking, Norman, English, Scottish are cultural terms and not necessarily biological. Despite what the following answer

states researchers McEvoy et al. found "scant evidence of Scandinavian Y-chromosome introgression in a general Irish population sample". The findings were consistent with a relatively small number of Norse settlers and descendants migrating into Ireland in the period of 800-1200 AD suggesting that Norse colonial settlements might have been largely composed of indigenous Irish.

Another Answer:

We're Celtic and Viking ( i.e. from Scandinavia), Norman (from France) and following the plantations in the Northern Ireland and the Pale i.e. around Dublin part Anglo.

Irish Travellers live mostly in caravans and travel around, which is why they are known as Travellers. Some do settle and stay on in the one place in houses. They do travel to other countries too, so they are found outside of Ireland.

Are you from Ireland cause my people are from Dublin?

If your people are from Dublin, then they are Irish. It will depend on where you are from, like where you were born and live to determine where you are from. You may have Irish ancestry through your people, but if you were not born in Ireland and don't live there, then you cannot fully claim to be Irish, although you will be able to get an Irish passport, if a parent or grandparent is from Ireland.
