    3. This is not the latest news for sure but gives us an idea of what happened and what is happening. Many people have not had their DNA done so this gives them an idea as to immigration.

    3. Without wishing to be a wet blanket may I point out that there are so many Hamlyn & variants that at one time, years ago, there was a One Name Study devoted to the name. Unfortunately the person running it rarely replied to snail or other mail & I would think is now probably long deceased. (I am 81 myself).My own interest is HAMBLY of Plymouth ( my mother) and I had a dickens of a job trying to sort them out when they were recorded as: Hambly, Hambley, Hamly, Hamley, Hamlin, Hamlyn Hamblin, Hambling etc. I suspect there are still relatives out there in the Plymouth area I don't know about.There are still Hamlyns on & about South Dartmoor in the Ashburton/Widecombe area, where I once lived, some of whom I knew.  I very much doubt they are connected with those in other farther areas of Devon. The Plymouth Hamblys possibly derive from those of the same name over the Tamar in the Rame Peninsula, as in the well known coach firm, but, thanks to the blitz, any early records from  Plymouth St Andrews or Plymouth Charles (where my lot lived) are lost so no hope of connecting way back.Stephen Treseder Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Wed, 12 Dec 2018 at 10:03, devon-request@rootsweb.com<devon-request@rootsweb.com> wrote: Send DEVON mailing list submissions to devon@rootsweb.com To subscribe via email send a message with subject subscribe and body subscribe to devon-request@rootsweb.com To unsubscribe via email send a message with subject unsubscribe and body unsubscribe to devon-request@rootsweb.com You can reach the person managing the list at devon-owner@rootsweb.com When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of DEVON digest..."

    2. If anyone is interested in understanding more about the spread of DNA in the UK then I can recommend the book 'Britain, a genetic journey' by Brian Moffat, 2017 ISBN 978 1 78027 463 8. I bought a paperback of it from Abe Books and it is fairly easy reading but full of the most fascinating facts, including the fact that mouse DNA in the UK also shows evidence of man's migratory routes in that Orkney mice have Norwegian DNA whereas the mainland mice have general European as they arrived with us over the centuries. It explains the effects of all of the invasions and why DNA is different in the West from the rest of the country. Meg Galley-Taylor

    3. Thank you for that link Edna. When my 93-year-old mother's DNA test results came back from AncestryDNA, the report linked her to Devon and Cornwall. This confirmed the known historical facts, i.e. that her all-female line ancestor was Ann TRELEAVEN (ca 1784-1855), and so mum's (and my) MTDNA forebear, who married Devon-born John LANG (ca 1789-1864) at Lanlivery parish church in Cornwall on St George's Day 1812. Added to this, my mum's father's line, ROBERTS, though from London (UK) since the Napoleonic Wars actually originated with a Cornish tinner named Thomas ROBERTS (ca 1786-1838) who travelled up to London due to the slump in his industry caused by the end of those hostilities. I was very interested then about the remark that the Cornish have more in common genetically with the English than with the Welsh, Scots, and Irish. Interestingly my niece, mum's female line granddaughter's results pointed to the Ulster region of Ireland and central Scotland as her emphasised place of origin. This is the area her father, my brother-in-law (who was adopted), has indicated that his biological father came from after WWI. Sounds like Dalriada is indicated. Very interesting to see.

This is what I sent Len about 10 minutes ago. I do hope it gets through.

The 10 minutes ago this reply to Len Len I took a wild guess and came up with this which is a possible match [not sure if they are yours or not, but just in case.] John HAMLYN died 27 Mar 1895 Toowoomba buried 28 Mar 1895 aged 77 - at Toowoomba & Drayton Cemetery s/o Wife Sarah died 2 Nov 1904 aged 76 Toowoomba buried 3 Nov at Toowoomba & Drayton Cemetery They could have died near Toowoomba, because at that time there were not too many cemeteries around and lots of people who lived nearby gor buried in Toowoomba & Drayton, which is the oldest Cemetery here You will note that John's age matches almost with the immigration one I sent. Maybe the " Single" bit was a mistake. See other deaths here https://www.familyhistory.bdm.qld.gov.au/ and https://www.familyhistory.bdm.qld.gov.au/ The John Drewe HAMLYN who died 18 Nov 1890 died at Mayborough, after a long and painful illness, was the eldest son of John HAMLYN, of Harley Vale, Geham. Geham is about 20 klms from Toowoomba, so it maybe that the John who died 1795 is that John and that he would have died geham [perhaps] then buried in Toowoomba.
