Classify 6th form girls team from Roscommon Ireland

[Grace O'Malley]

Some of them are obviously not ethnic Irish. Even in Roscommon there are a lot of immigrants. About 20% in Ireland now are not Irish born and of course many children have non-Irish parents. It is possible 4 or 5 or them are not ethnic Irish. For Northern Ireland 13.5% are born outside Northern Ireland.

These are also from Roscommon.



Here's a men's basketball team from Ireland. Ireland is getting very racially mixed so really you would have to be sure you are posting actual Irish and not immigrants.

Well the website had some dark Irish girls with obviously Irish names so I can be sure that the majority in that group are Irish, some of those folks in those pics you posted are also quite dark including an older man in the first photo.

It's more facial features and I would need their surnames as quite a few of them look obviously not Irish to me. My father is from Roscommon so I'm quite aware of what people there look like. It's not their colouring but facial features.

Girl at the front on the right kneeling doesn't look Irish. 3 girls at the back don't look Irish.

Girls below are Irish and the names are available. The pictures you choose are always atypical which is why people ask "are they ethnically Irish?"

You post very atypical people and one of the girls in your pictures has obvious Asian heritage. The last three pictures are fine though but in the second to last picture one of the girls at the back doesn't look Irish. The last picture everyone looks Irish to me.

I can't get all the names but all the girls I have posted have dopplegangers in the rest of Ireland including the "Asian' looking one, glad you agree the darker ones in the last picture look Irish.

They look like more robust/stocky English here. Maybe i could tell they are not English because of a few types of faces that only seems to occur in Ireland (but still find it hard to distinguish them in general)

This! I must reiterate that, on average, I find the Irish harder to distinguish from the English than the Welsh or Scottish (despite the Irish being slightly genetically further from the English.... genotype doesn't always correlate with phenotype. As has been remarked on by a few TA users the Dutch are one of the most phenotypically distinct northern European populations despite being one of the most genetically indistinct).

To illustrate my point here are some random pictures from just using google and typing in Roscommon people.

Here are some pictures from first page of that search.

I see at least 2 darker fellas in the first pic, again the majority are of course light but in the school there are more girls with Irish names displayed on pics but I don't want to post the pics cos of issues and privacy and their age.
