Tip:
Actually, the reason there seem to be a disproportionately large red 
haired population in Ireland and western Britain is the Angles, 
Jutes, Saxons, etc.  The vikings and related groups did a lot of 
raiding (and as was the wont of such types in those days, raping) and 
left a lot of red and blonde haired bairns in their wake.  That's 
more common in Ireland and Hebrides, but certainly one sees it in 
Wales.

Best regards,
