Yeah, they are/were both Scotch/Irish. Jim loved Van Morrison's music
when he was alive too.

Don't think so.

Of course there is that "gloria" connection....

They're not related (I've read this several times over the years)... and I
think it's correct that Van Morrison had a different family name. That
said, one must bear in mind that most people of western european ancestry
are probably related one way or another if one goes back 20-30 generations
(600-900 years). -- 2 (parents) raised to the 20th power (generations) is
a big number.
