Hi, Carl, autosomal DNA refers to the first 22 chromosomes, and familytreedna.com uses the term FamilyFinder to refer to this autosomal DNA. The 23rd chromosome is the xx or xy chromosome that controls whether the baby is a girl or boy. We get autosomal DNA from both our parents. mtDNA is only from the mothers and yDNA is only from the fathers. familytreedna tests all three, autosomal/FamilyFinder, mtDNA, and yDNA. AncestryDNA does not test mtDNA and yDNA; it tests only autosomal.

Carl, Family Finder is the autosomal dna test. Mitochondrial traces your mother's line. A man cannot pass on mitochondrial dna, altho he inherits it from his mother. A woman passes on her motochondrial dna to her sons and daughters. Also, it is important for the older generation to be tested first..I had my Mom tested. She is a geberation ahead, so matches people I do not. There are some good U tube videos explaining it all. Maurice Gleeson has some excellent ones.

To clarify: What is the "Family Finder" on FTDNA? Autosomal or Mtdna? I bought into that too, and have found a couple of 4th cousins confirmed, and another couple that we have not confirmed yet.

Janet if you are a Maguire descendant you could compare your autosomal dna with Carl’s if he has had his tested. This may show up a connection out to about 5th cousins depending on whether you both inherited the same bits. As far as I am aware you cannot compare autosomal and Y-DNA (or mtDNA for that matter). Margaret in Oz.

Carl If you have the 111 markers can you match at all with someone who has an autosomal test? My Maguires are on my maternal GGGrandmother’s side. Not many go for the 111 markers test. All my male relatives are descended from the same couple with a male McDonnell. Direct line would be female and I only have one of those in a female line. Am I making sense? 1 female I can trace in a direct line to my female Maguire.

I'm on it at 111 markers, and nobody is admitting to have a common ancestor with me. Precious few Maguires considering we used to own Fermanagh. Sigh.

Hi Sean, Some of my Murphy relatives in West Monaghan near Dundrumman have family records in Tedavnet RC church - an adjacent parish which might be worth looking at. The church marriage records for Roslea in the 1860s will provide the parents of the married couple, which can take you back another generation. PRONI have the Valuation revision books on line which are very interesting reading. They cover all transactions of each land holding from the Griffith Valuation (1862 for Fermanagh) up to 1929. I had a quick look at Derryard. It is quite hard to read on some of the images but Joseph Murphy took over 2 holdings in 1907 from Philip Murphy who had taken them on in 1897 - might be a family link there.

Hi Jean, I am a Crozier descendent, not living in Ireland though. My Crozier ancestor left Fermanagh in 1878 to settle in Australia. I have come across at least 3 distinct groups of Croziers in the Tyrone/Fermanagh region  during my research. My lot lived mostly around Ederney, another family was from Ballinmallard (I think this is Viola's family) and a 3rd from over in the Kilskeery area of Tyrone.   I believe your brother is a match to my 1st cousin in FTDNA. Happy to chat about that in direct message.Also I may be able to put you in touch with a Irish Crozier cousin of mine who has contacted me, no promises. He incidentally is descended from both my lot and a Richard Crozier of Mageralough, Kilskeery, Tyrone. No idea if he is into DNA genealogy though.

I have a genealogy which shows a Catherine Baxter b. 1747 who married Hugh Boyd b.1743. Catherine Baxter died and was buried in 2/11/1825 at St. Patrick's Church of Ireland, Newry, County Down. Catherine Baxter's father was a James Baxter b. around 1725, and her mother Catherine Conyngham b. around 1730. Might Catherine Baxter be a sister to your James Baxter b. 1746?

Hi Viola, Do you happen to know the surname of the family who married into the Sedboroughs, he was enquiring about? I have never seen Mount Sedborough on modern maps, but have seen "Mount Sedborough Lough" marked. But I know it is located in modern townland of Rateen, and is owned by the MAYNE's family due to the marriage of Barbara Sedborough to John Mayne. https://www.townlands.ie/fermanagh/clankelly/clones-clankelly-portion/ coolnamarrow/rateen/ Rateen neighbours the townland of Rathmoran previously known as Lisnamoran which according to local oral history had a very impressive castle built on it and seat of the old "Ardmagh" lands. Not to be confused with the later "Armagh Manor" which restored the use of this old name and was/is seated at Ballagh. The ruins of the castle can be seen marked on the 1st Edition OS maps made in the 1830's. I have heard stories of how the castle came to be in ruins, but never found any evidence in records and would be very interested if these townlands are mentioned in records prior to 1830. Also, another thing I find curious is that old records refer to "Mount Mount Sedborough" and I would love to know why the use of double Mount.

My Baxters were Roman Catholic, Three came to America in the 1840s and early 1850s, John, James, Charles. They settled in Allamakee County, furthest northeastern county in Iowa. They left four brothers behind, Robert, Patrick, William and Thomas. One tombstone says Drumliff, Lisnaskea. John went back to Ireland when his wife died, remarried in Boston area when he returned to the USA. All the brothers who came to Iowa had an eldest son named John as well as a daughter named Sarah, so, duh, I suspect their parents of being John and Sarah. I have a DNA match, third cousin level, whose grandmother was Marie Baxter Dion, Worcester, Massachusetts area, and I am hoping she is a descendant or at least related to that John. I love DNA but it sure does not provide all the answers you wish you had!
