Question regarding Somerled article posted above



Sorry for posting this separately, but for some html reason. As historian
for Clan MacAlister in the US, I would like to ask a basic question: Does
the Norse "Y" chromosome mean that Somerled had to have a Norse father?
The genealogies have always recognized that Somerled was half-Norse (the
article below seems to be saying that the genealogies have him as entirely
Celtic, which would not be correct). His father was Gillebride, the King of
Argyll (Celtic), who married the daughter of the King of Man (Norse, at the
time).
