Talk:History of the Jews in Scotland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I have no Jewish background whatsoever, and nearly all the Scots I have met of Jewish backgrounds were either non-practising, or had only partial family backgrounds. So I hope that some better informed people might expand this a little.

I am hoping a similar article on Islam in Scotland might be written as well. --MacRusgail 20:05, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

This article lists Alicia Silverstone as being of Scottish-Jewish extraction, yet the Alicia Silverstone page lists both of her parents as being English. Which one is right? -- Siobhan

People often claim Scottish folk to be English, especially if they are English themselves, or from overseas. I seem to recall that her Scottish and Jewish ancestors came from different places. --MacRusgail 18:50, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
