I've heard everybody and their grandmother give different interpretations of it. There are those who say that the "Scots-Irish" were merely Scottish people who lived in Ireland for like five minutes and then went to America. And then there are other people who seem to believe that "Scots-Irish" was adopted by non-Catholic Irish who were in America for decades by the time of the massive immigration waves of the 1840's and the 1850's to avoid confusion with the unpopular Catholics who were then coming over.
So color me confused and ignorant over exactly what the hell this even means.
