Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Will DNA testing solve this query?
« on: Monday 18 May 20 23:07 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,
I need an insight on this please.Right then I'll try and explain this as best as I can.
Two married couples, we'll call them A and B.The two women in the marriages are sisters.
Couple A have a boy,he's told in later life that it's not his real father.Even though it's never revealed,suspicion points heavily to the husband in couple B as his real father.
Couple B also have a son.The two resulting sons both have daughters who are the only survivors today.
My question is,if the daughters both have a DNA test would it show that they both have the same grandfather from couple B or would the fact that A and B are sisters affect the outcome?
Hope I explained this ok.

Europe / Magnus Soderberg born Sweden
« on: Thursday 09 May 19 17:30 BST (UK)  »
If possible looking for birth/parents info on my above ancestor.At some stage he emigrated to London and married Eliza Hicks.An entry on oldbaileyonline shows him with his wife in 1821 on a charge with which they were both acquitted.This entry shows him as  being born in Gothenburg in 1777.Looks like he might have died around 1828 in Kingsbench prison  London.
Many thanks.

« on: Friday 20 January 17 15:36 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all,
I understand The National Archives holds details for the above vessel O.N. 87101,built in 1883.I'm particularly interested in who was on board during the Krakatoa volcanic eruption in the same year.
Is it straight forward to order all the relevant documents for that voyage?
Many thanks.
