Hello, I just joined the list and figured out how to browse/search. I am new to DNA as well. I am really just a lurking sole who doesn't know what to do with all of the dna info as of yet. FTDNA tells us customers to read the tutorials. I have been researching Keilty family history for just a few years here in the USA (paperwork genealogy).   I am trying to identify accurate information about the Keilty family from Ireland. I do know that my paternal great-grandfather "Michael Keilty" was supposed to have come from County Tyrone, Ireland and immigrated to the USA abt 1860 settling in Watertown, County Litchfield, Connecticut, 06795 USA. Michael Keilty was born 15 AUG 1838 (Tyrone?) Ireland, died 08 MAR 1923 and buried Mt St James Cemetery, Watertown, County Litchfield, Connecticut, 06795 USA. Possibly from the parish of Kildress and diocese of Armagh. Michael was Catholic and his parents are possibly Patrick Keilty (1810-) and Catherine McShane (1818-) from Ireland. Michael Keilty (1838-1923) married Sarah Quinn (1854-1927), but it is not known whether married in Ireland or the USA. They had nine children and raised their family in Watertown, County Litchfield, Connecticut, 06795 USA. I am interested in researching how far back the Keilty surname goes. Some of the other surnames of interest from the paperwork genealogy include Keilty, McShane, Quinn, Kelly (from County Roscommon, Ireland), Dubauskas (from Lithuania). If anyone could kindly point me in the right direction or refer me to someone it would be greatly appreciated. I would be pleased to provide any further information.

Well lot's of luck Bernard, but I think your barking up the wrong tree on this site. I haven't learned a thing in the 2 or 3 years on here, you have to be a expert or more then you think you know to argue about it. -----Original Message----- From: Bernard Keilty <ytliekb@yahoo.com> To: DNA-R1B1C7 <DNA-R1B1C7@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thu, Jul 28, 2011 12:53 pm Subject: [R-M222] Keilty surname research Hello, I just joined the list and figured out how to browse/search.

Hi, Bernard. I am in the M222 and Quinn projects on FTDNA and feeling my way around. Give me a little time to better digest your note.My Family Tree is Quinn/Woods on Ancestry.com. Bernard Quinn, my GGGF came to Philadelphia from Armagh with his wife Elizabeth Murphy Quinn and their son, my GGF Arthur Quinn in about 1870.My Mother's Woods family is from Castleblayney and came to Philadelphia at about the same time.Takes a lot of digging, for sure.
