Thank you. I will check the matches for clues as suggested.

Further to my previous question. In the image, 1,2,4 and 5 triangulate and are on my paternal line. As 4 does not triangulate, could this mean it will probably be on my maternal line?

@ pughcd  - Thank you, I will check that out.

@ CorleyMiller  - Thank you for your explanation. Am I correct in assuming then, that as the matches on C1 are on my paternal grandfather's mother's line, I can at least allocate all matches on C1 to that line but not necessarily that ancestral couple?

@ Biggles50 - Thank you. I am using the chromosome browser on My Heritage and pasting to DNA Painter. On and off over the years I have watched and read almost all I can find on the subject. Unfortunately somehow I just cannot click with it. I don't have many known or high cM matches which doesn't help.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Help With Grouping Matches

Hi to all.

I'm just trying to learn the basics of DNA matching using a chromosome browser and would like help with the following:

1. I have a confirmed match and know the MRCA with yellow. Can I now add the other matches to this couple?

2.  If I find a match (that is not any of those in the diagram) and they were to match with the small green isolated match, would this mean they could be tagged to the same MRCA?

I hope this rambing makes sense  :)

Agree. "The devil is in the detail"

Thank you so much for your replies.

In 2007 I visited the NLI in Dublin and Mountrath and collected the baptisms for the 3 girls and the marriage in 1841 for John Shea. I believe it may be significant as the witness to the marriage and for the baptism of first born Bridget is Wm Grady. However, as the bride's surname does not match (even close) I have added for information.

I did not have the Griffiths Valuation for John Shea and this is a fantastic find; thank you.

Would anyone know what a cross against the name on a baptism would indicate?
This symbol is noted on all three baptisms for the girls. It is used on other entries but the majority are unmarked.

Thanks again for the help. It is much appreciated

Laois (Queens) / Cahill / Shee from Mountrath?

Hi - I'm looking to find the marriage or birthplace of Alice Cahill c1817 and John Shee.

They had three children as follows all baptised in Mountrath:
Bridget 1843
Mary   1845
Eliza   1848
The names Cahill and Shee don't seem to be very prolific in this area so not sure if they would have been born in the area.

Alice was in England and a widow on the 1861 census but I cannot find a death for John in Ireland or England.

Any help or ideas of where I could possibly explore would be great.

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: St Mary's Church, Leeds?

Thank you for your replies.

Update having contacted Leeds Libraries and Mike at YB:

The church of St Mary's (Quarry Hill) and St Mary's (Mabgate) are one and the same.

The burial entries for St Mary were recorded in the register for St Peter's Parish Church, Leeds and separated by YB to help researchers; they were not transcribed from an individual register.

Yorkshire (West Riding) / St Mary's Church, Leeds?

Does anyone know definitively if the burials recorded in the registers of the Parish Church of St Peter's that note 'burial in St Marys churchyard' are referring to the churchyard at St Mary's, Quarry Hill?

The church of St Mary's appears to commence with parish records from 1826 (TNA - Kew catalogue, St Mary the Virgin Parish, Leeds Quarry Hill, 1826-1977 ) and WYAS RDP68 1826-1977.
