James,

My mother was in the home in Tuam and knew only her mother's name.  We had some success discovering what happened to her mother.  If you are interested in any details or advice, let me know.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: Finding my father through Ancestry DNA

I've had some success finding missing fathers.  One took a few hours to find, another took 8 years.  In any case, don't give up.  You never know when you'll find him.

Since you're using Ancestry, create groups.  Start simply with one named Mother and the other named Father.  Set a goal of placing every Close Match in either one. This will not be quick.  Shared Matches will help you along.

Upload your DNA to other sites to compare your DNA to other pools.  Try familytreedna.com, myheritage.com, livingdna.com, gedmatch.  Also, do another DNA test with 23andme.
