4. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Gomer
   complete; vanishing. (1.) The daughter of Diblaim, who (probably
   in vision only) became the wife of Hosea (1:3).
   
     (2.) The eldest son of Japheth, and father of Ashkenaz,
   Riphath, and Togarmah (Gen. 10:2, 3), whose descendants formed
   the principal branch of the population of South-eastern Europe.
   He is generally regarded as the ancestor of the Celtae and the
   Cimmerii, who in early times settled to the north of the Black
   Sea, and gave their name to the Crimea, the ancient Chersonesus
   Taurica. Traces of their presence are found in the names
   Cimmerian Bosphorus, Cimmerian Isthmus, etc. In the seventh
   century B.C. they were driven out of their original seat by the
   Scythians, and overran western Asia Minor, whence they were
   afterwards expelled. They subsequently reappear in the times of
   the Romans as the Cimbri of the north and west of Europe, whence
   they crossed to the British Isles, where their descendants are
   still found in the Gaels and Cymry. Thus the whole Celtic race
   may be regarded as descended from Gomer.
