Scotch-Irish American (also Scots-Irish American) refers to an estimated 250,000 Irish Presbyterian and other Protestant dissenters from the Province of Ulster who immigrated to North America primarily during the colonial era, and their descendants.
Some scholars also include the 150,000 Ulster Protestants who immigrated to America during the early 19th century, and their descendants.
Most of the Scotch Irish were descended from Scottish and English families who colonized Ireland during the Plantation of Ulster in the 17th century.
People in Great Britain or Ireland that are of a similar ancestry usually refer to themselves as Ulster Scots,
with the term "Scotch-Irish" used only in North America.
