Both will be useful on my trip I’m loosely planning next year

Yes, definitely not trusting those trees. She was Catholic and immigrated to Boston around 1883/4 with her parents. She later married Patrick Travers from Donegal in Boston.

Have you looked up the Leeds method? There are some great YouTube videos on it. Especially from the creator (Dana Leeds) and Yourdnaguide / Diahan Southard

I actually checked and I’m pretty sure i would need to request it from the city / state for a boston death in 1936 but I don’t want to spend that money loll

Hm i actually found a birth record for her child that says she was born in Killarney but there’s several slightly conflicting records attached on familysearch. They’ve attached her parents’ marriage record in two towns quite far from each other. I’ve also seen conflicting last name for her mom.

Unfortunately her name is Catherine Sullivan 😭 but dna journeys point to one of these areas. I’m also going through dna matches now. I have a pretty consistent birth year (~1871) but don’t see a birth with the matching parents. I’m going to look again though.

Hmmm okay interesting thank you

Also I’ve continued this momentum and built so much of my family tree and figured out who other close dna matches are! Including someone famous 🤫 #genealogy #familyhistory

Köszi!!

Excited to watch this !

I also quickly found the husband of one of these cousins which led me to confirming the relationship to my grandma’s closest dna match on ancestry! I had his tree partially built for years and never figured it out! #familyhistory #genealogy

Thank you so much! Just need to figure out how I’m gonna afford it lol 🤣

Mind you i messaged this person a couple years ago to connect and share information….and these crazy changes were made in July of this year
