Carmarthenshire / Re: Donne, Anthony of Carmarthen and London born c 1693

Jacqueline, my ancestors travelled directly from Cornwall, England to the United States, in 1639, and my original comment was to your comment about Anthony, whose ancestors may have come from Kilkenny.
I would be speculating by believing that mine may have, also, but a DNA comparison would identify common ancestors.  While seemingly vague, to you, my DNA is not presently, made available to the public.  I never claimed that it was, but only that it could be.

You might try these links.

We might all be descendant from this man.

Hello  Jacqueline,  I have been researching and developing my family heritage, day and night, over the past 16 months.  I broke down the brick wall that had been standing 20 years.
I am a highly trained database specialist, and this work is right up my alley.
Most recently, I began to separate the Dunn families, by their customs and traditions, but what has distinguished my family from all of the others, is religion.  We are Catholic.
My discovery that John Ross Dunn was Catholic, and that he had been in Cecil, Maryland, around 1735, led me to connect him with the Robert Donne family of Kent Island, Maryland.
You can see my work, all over Familysearch.org and WikiTree.com.
I have not submitted my DNA for analysis.

I've traced my Donne ancestors to Robert Donne 1630 St. Erth, Cornwall, England, and before that, possibly to Kidwelly, in Carmarthenshire.

You might want to compare DNA. 

Here is the link to my WikiTree family.
