If my 'fierce' Presbyterian family is anything to go by they often married from CoI churches, in fact at one stage marriages had to be in CoI to be legal? I think?

The Irish had naming pattern and many followed it
'The Irish naming pattern is as follows:
1st son is named after the father’s father.
2nd son is named after the mother’s father.
3rd son is named after the father.
4th son is named after the father’s eldest brother.
1st daughter is named after the mother’s mother.
2nd daughter is named after the father’s mother.
3rd daughter is named after the mother.
4th daughter is named after the mother’s eldest sister.'

Could you summarise the answers to the above questions from previous postings and we will give it a really good go......
And also commit to using this thread going forward.
Also there comes a time when we cannot find birth certificates etc and then we can use DNA and sometimes that can push us back a couple of generations if we come from a family/ies who are also genealogists. Have you had your DNA tested?
