Hey folks, hopefully some of you will see this. Any of you have any McClellands male relatives that could take a Y dna test? I've taken one and my family are from Newry county Down where i still live today. I've traced back to the early 1800s thanks to some people here but to get beyond that> YDNA will be the biggest clue.

essentially if you test a male Y heir and they match with me then you know for certain we are related.  I did have a YDNA match with the surname McLellan and ftdna predicts we shared a common ancestor in 1760 so im just missing one or two generations.
