Hello I am new on here and not sure if posting in wrong place so sorry if it is. I've been doing my family tree research 25+ years. My mums father is unknown,her mum died when she was only 3 years old. Story told was that he was an American/Canadian soldier killed in the war. My mum was born in 1941 in Wiltshire. I think the story was to stop my mum asking, she is nearly 80,agreed to have her dna tested for me. I always hoped it would lead me straight to my grandad and his family but over a year later I still haven't worked out who he is!
My mums Dna matches unknown possible half nephew 860 cm 25 seg(our family trees do not match up, he thinks his grandad was my mums dad, but by the other matches my mum,myself and daughter have do not fit nor do we match anyone else in his tree.The next highest match 363cm 21 seg descended from William Arnold abt1833 and Roseanna Bate 1839 both ending up in Oswestry Shropshire. We all have several 2-3rd cousin matches down to about 100cm to this couple, their son Henry 1865 married Mary Hyde 1866 and we have several matches to the Hyde family so if doing this correctly we are related through the Hyde and Arnold link. One of their children could be my mums grandparent who would of had a child my grandad about 1920s with a child that would of descended from Thomas Smith 1727, Booth/Clayton(via Keziah and Everett Plumb)Elliott,Woodward through their children as have several matches to them too,highest being the Booth/Clayton line.
have done leeds method,messaged people,tried dna painter,built out "quick and dirty" trees but being as these matches are Romany from endgame community most do not help. I'm also on gedmatch,familytreedna and living dna.
Any help or advice would be gratefully appreciated or if you know any info on the families
thank you
