    3. Hi Martha, Elizabeth Dunn was born in Deptford Kent , but I would think that her parents came from Bristol. As she was listed as a neice, I would think she was related to Sarah Elizabeth Thomas b. 1847 Clifton Bristol the wife of William David Charles b.1846 Clifton Bristol. None of my Charles family married a Dunn. The Mayo would also have come from Bristol. Mayo was a witness to William David Chalres parents in 1844, Clifton Bristol. David's mother being Rhoda Evans b.1818 Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire Wales. Father William Evans Mariner.

    3. Sending this out as reminder, this came, in part, as an email to me via FTDNA. For all Surname Projects and "anyone without a surname project." "Remember to share this with everyone. Leave copies at your genealogical society's library and meeting areas" Here are some of the details. "I can not give you pricing over the message boards, you will have to go to the Surname Project you are interested in to see the prices. You can list the prices on any info you give to your Genealogy Assoc. or post a copy at your local coffe shop message board or library message board. You may order through any Geographic or Surname project. During high traffic times, the online ordering system at Family Tree DNA may be inaccessible. There are two alternatives: ordering by phone and ordering through email. Ordering by Phone: You may order by calling the Family Tree DNA office. The phone number is 1-713-868-1438. The office staff is always friendly and helpful. Ordering by Email: You may send an email to Ashley Coursey, [email protected] She has agreed to help with this. She can also help place an order by invoice. Ordering on invoice is useful if you are sharing costs with someone else. Just remember that payments have to be in by the 30th. Please thank Ashley for going out of her way to help us.:-) If you need a project to get the discount: Emily has agreed to let those who do not have a surname project order through her local genealogical society. Here is what she says... "Ordering a test from Emily's Blog: To order a DNA test and receive the reduced price... 1. Go to: http://genealem-geneticgenealogy.blogspot.com/ 2. Go to the bottom right and click on the FTDNA icon. 3. Where it says SEARCH on the right side, type in GFO 4. On the next page, click on GFO 5. Complete the form. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on JOIN. Of course one can order this same way and put in any existing surname project where you see GFO. GFO is a local genealogical society and you do not have to be a member. Hope this helps and thanks for ordering via the blog." Thank you, Rebekah

    3. Hi Lynne Charles, UK, It would be exciting to have a connection across the pond, especially to Pembrokeshire, Wales, one of my favorite places!  With the earliest Evans that I have heard about being William Evans b. ca 1780 in North Carolina, I don't know where to go next to find a link. Do you have any records of Evans in Wales that had family members who "disappeared" in the late 1700s? Looking at ships' manifests would only work if we had William's father's name, because if William was born in North Carolina, he would not be listed on a ship. If William Evans, Mariner, Pembroke, Wales, had a daughter born 1818, a guess would have him born sometime before 1800, and younger than William b. 1780 NC. This could mean he (William/Pembroke) was a cousin or nephew to the William/NC. ???? Probably they wouldn't be brothers (two Williams?) and William/Pembroke would not have been old enough to be William/NC's father left behind in Wales. And, since William/Pembroke was a mariner, he might have been able to keep contact with part of the family that had emigrated to the "new world."  And - William is a very common name and Evans is/was a very common name in Wales. This is all wild speculation, but fun - and these wild speculations are the things that often get us to the next step in our searches for family links. Do you know where the Dunn family of Elizabeth Dunn in the 1891 census originated? A connection to Sela Dunn is almost a100-year stretch, since William/NC married Sela Dunn around 1806 (that's not a firm date, just that their first kid might have been born in 1807), and Sela was b. ca 1780/90 in North Carolina.
