Paragraph 7:
" Because the so-called Celtic toe can disappear after many
generations of intermarriage, it is not a necessary condition to having a Celtic
ancestor, but it is a sufficient one: if a person has the Celtic toe, he or she
is almost certain to be of Celtic descent."
So I'm wondering. If an individual doesn't have this condition & you can positively trace your line to Scotland / Ireland then does this mean it has been "bred out" of your line?
Or does it mean that perhaps your line is more Norse / Norman / or Pict?
