I wonder how much this gives an indicator as to how close it is.

I'm guessing from the deafening silence the answer is 'no'.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Possible Gatty connection
« on: Wednesday 01 February 17 01:02 GMT (UK) »
I have a relatively rare surname (Gatty), with variant spelling there are about 1100 worldwide .
The Gattys seem to have been found first in Cornwall and then Devon as Gattey.
My father and I have not been able to connect our Gatty line to the Cornish and Devon branches.
A little while ago I loaded my father's raw data to My heritage. Recently I discovered he has a 24cM/15.8 match with someone who has an Elizabeth Gatty born Veryan,Cornwall in 1704 as an 8th generation ancestor.
Could this be the elusive Cornish/Devon connection?
I'm thinking the link has to be via male sibling or other male Gatty ancestor of Elizabeth.

Now not sure what to believe. The 1851 and 1891 census has my 2gt grandfather Henry Charles Cooper listed as born Overton, Flintshire in 1822/23.I know his father was Benjamin from marriage cert.
However family search brings up the following:
Henry Charles Cooper
Gender: Male
Baptism Date: 20 Oct 1822
Baptism Place: Overton, Cheshire, England
Father: Benjamin Cooper
Mother: Elizabeth
FHL Film Number: 1751487

Flintshire / Re: Cooper

Interesting to see the research re Benjamin Walton Cooper but unfortunately doesn't help me. As far as i can make out Benjamin Walton Cooper only had two sons-William and Benjamin.
Sometime between 1851-1860 my Henry Charles Cooper went to Lancashire and married Sarah Bramall in 1860 at Manchester and later Mary Mcreadie nee Bramall(Sarah's sister).

According to 3rd post http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=564527.0
I have considered this Benjamin but am not sure about a wine/spirit merchant becoming a clerk/printer/ or stationer.

We also know Benjamin Sr was a wine/spirit merchant in Wrexham before he went bankrupt in 1825.
