Different people: Irish Travellers TravelersThe Irish are an ethnic group or social number about 50,000 worldwide, about 7,000 of them live in the United States. They were brought to the United States in the 1840s after the famine of the potato while most Irish people emigrated here. We have a group of them in my own town here in Texas and they live in a trailer park right down the street from me. However, if I ever encounter one of them, I certainly could not comment because they seem to be like everyone else. Irish Traveller heritage home is involved, but in Ireland, they are regarded as nomads or gypsies, and were mentioned in the Gaelic as "The people that walked." Some say they were persecuted by Oliver Cromwell during the Protestants of Northern Ireland has resumed. Supposedly, they were removed them because they were Catholics who forced them to become a pariah and this began their wandering ways homeless, but this was never confirmed.The travelers have their own language called "Shelter" which is derived from Gaelic Ireland. Their particular language, however, are divided into two distinct groups "Gammon" and "Cannot 'which dates back to before 1700. This is not the norm in Gaelic if, as is sometimes said back, confused or mixed with those who understand true Gaelic.They also have their own music and customs, rather than adopting those of the zone in which they live. Travellers living on their own set of rule, they do not recognize most of the governments and for this reason they are considered sort of "outlaw" with a bad reputation. They have been accused of many things defraud others, extortion, and even theft. Some of them were indeed criminals, but most of them are hard workers and take care of their families, but prefer to handle their affairs. Many of them are handy with tools and able to make their own at times. Unfortunately, children rarely have the time to receive a formal education, except in the ways of their clan as they move around a lot. The Irish Travellers are generally Roman Catholic and as such are concerned with the well-being of their children as a whole. Although there was a case recently in the news that a woman accused of beating her child in a car park in Ohio. The case was however dismissed later.
