  1. The Welsh were (are) known for their fearless nature appropriate for a 'race' often digging into the bowels of the Earth for treasures.  Because of their skill as miners the Welsh were recruited for the coal fields of Pennsylvania and spilled over into the coalfields of West Virginia and thus though two states can most likely claims the largest percentage however since mining spread across America one can find large numbers in places such as the upper peninsula of Michigan and in places such as Montana and the Dakotas and Wisconcin as well as California and Nevada.  But for sheer numbers the coalfields are the place to find the Welsh therefore West Virginia and Pennsylvania would be the answer you are seeking.
