Well, I know Carol already pointed out that Lewis was part Welsh - but both his parents were Welsh, not just one. He happens to be listed on famouswelsh.com.
Culturally, he was Irish as he grew up there - but indeedy, he displays all the definitive literary traits of a Welshman - all the way back to Caesar's account of them. Maybe I'm a little biased though, too. Lewis, after all, is my family name. ;)

Northern Irish people are British. Whether or not you agree with that - and i am not getting into that one :) - that is what they are classed as being.
