3. In what two ways is it surmised that the term "Redneck" Originated?

A. The basic answer is that it comes from the Southern farmers neck getting sunburnt while working the fields.

B. In the 1600s a large segment of the Scottish rebelled against Catholic rule, and to show unity they wore red kerchiefs around their neck. These "rebels" became Presbyterians. Also, in the 1600s and 1700s many of the immigrants to the southern colonies who became farmers and plantation owners/worker were Scottish Presbyterians who brought with them the tradition of wearing the red kerchief. So the redneck name stuck.
