East TN is very Scotch-Irish for the most part.

Decent amount of Germans behind that


Same for SC ... but add some Dutch in there as well. Especially in the midlands along with the Germans ... that's why we are a Lutheran state. Scotch-Irish upstate, Germans and Anglo-Saxons along the coast.

SC was a British settlement so our roots are English. NC was Scots Irish, which is why the Carolinas split. King Geo favored Charleston over Albermarle.
