In the 1901 census, the husband is apparently in Swinford workhouse.
A son is working as a farm servant.

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / Re: Possible to Attach DNA result to Multiple Trees on Anc*stry?
« on: Tuesday 09 April 24 15:23 BST (UK) »Sorry I don't understand this at all - you simply want Ancestry to duplicate all dna matches for the people whose dna you manage cos they are in different trees? So you could get the same results 2 or 3 times over?
I rather think you are getting muddled with matches and thrulines!
Pheno
What "duplication" of DNA matches? Those results already exist and are done per person, not per tree. The persons are the same persons.
The different trees the people are in are near identical.

Ireland / Re: Looking for Irish documents - Stuart, Hamilton, Fowley, early 1800s
« on: Tuesday 09 April 24 02:56 BST (UK) »Lisa,
The Anglican faith is formally known in Ireland as “the United Church of England & Ireland” shortened, in most cases, to Church of Ireland.
Er, um, the “the United Church of England & Ireland” ceased to exist on 1/1/1871!
The message might have gotten out by now.

The Common Room / Re: Why so much Scottish DNA?
« on: Tuesday 09 April 24 01:02 BST (UK) »My dads DNA has come back as 29% Scottish,but the only line i can find that goes North of the Border is a single 7xgreat grandfather born in Kelso in 1659.Would that be enough to provide that level of Scottish DNA,or is it likely ive got something wrong,or things are not as they seem from the records.
Any thoughts appreciated.
TIA.

« on: Monday 08 April 24 21:20 BST (UK) »But the principle is the same, Ancestry is only going to find the same dna matches to anyone whose dna is already in your tree, apart from any new matches which come through occasionally.
Pheno
But that is the whole point - yes, the same matches. Matches that are equally relevant to other trees containing the same people.
