Who were the scot Irish?

They were protestant Presbyterian, Lowland Scots. The Scot-Irish were not Irish and were not Catholics. The term Scot-Irish is strictly an American nomenclature. In England and Ireland the same people are called Ulster Scots, which is much less confusing.For the entire piece, go to:http://www.greencastlemuseum.org/Local_History/scotch-irish.htmFor something a little more in depth, go to:http://www.barlowgenealogy.com/Resources/scots-irish.htmlThe term was used since Queen Elizabeth 1 but fell out of use for many years, Scots Irish arose again simply because when Catholic Irish started coming into the US during the 1900's the old fashioned term was bought back to make a distinction between the earlier Protestant Irish settlers who came to the US from Ireland mostly between 1717 and `1776, and the refugees from the famine a hundred years later.The original settlers were from lowland Scotland did not speak Gaelic like their highland neighbours and in the 17 century Scottish and English landowners started to move them onto Catholic Irish lands as they spoke English and were not Catholic. Many went as their land had been overworked and was not as fertile as the Irish lands offered.They would not swear allegiance to the protestant Church of England and were seen as dissenters. This meant that they were not allowed to marry, bear arms or serve in the military. After 150 yrs of working the land of Ireland and being harshly treated by the rich landowners through methods such as rack renting they saw themselves as Irishmen but looked with hope towards the US as a land of freedom and opportunity.Most in Ireland use the term Ulstermen

Is Anderson scot Irish name?

Yes it certainly can be. The name Anderson (or its variations) originates in Scandinavia and travelled to Scotland with the Danes. It was a popular name in the Lowlands & Borderlands of Scotland. Many of these Scots migrated to Ulster (in Ireland) from the beginning of the 1600's. After a few generations these Scottish settlers in Ulster became the people known as the Scots-Irish (or Ulster Scots). Anderson is a common name in Ulster. After a few more generations many of the Scots-Irish migrated to America, especially between the years 1717 & 1770.
