<\/a><\/p>\nRichard is 45% mapped. I would like to get this up to 50%. In my last Blog, I was running into problems due to incorrect trees and intermarriage on the French Canadian side.<\/p>\n
I’ll start with FTDNA as that site uses the X Chromosome also. I wonder if I can figure out more about Richard’s X Chromosome. Rejeanne has an X Match with Richard:<\/p>\n
I actually found Rejeanne at MyHeritage and there is a Theory for her:<\/p>\n This theory looks plausible. From Richard it goes all the way back on the maternal side. Rejeanne has one man, but that is possible, because he would have received his X Chromosome from his mother and passed it intact to his daughter. For this to work, it appears that Louis Girard would have to have had two wives (or perhaps the genealogy is wrong).<\/p>\n Here is the closest link I could find at Ancestry:<\/p>\n This assumes that Pierre-Louis Girard is the same as Louis Marie Henri Girard. Also Louis Marie Henri would have had to have been about 14 or 16 when he married Emerance. This does not seem likely.<\/p>\n I can see why I have so little matched as it is difficult to track these matches down. Here is Diane at Gedmatch. She is also at Ancestry:<\/p>\n Here is her match at Gedmatch (to Richard).<\/p>\n I can now accept Diane’s connection to Lorraine or see if she fits into my wife’s family tree as suggested. I’ll add Diane to my tree as a floating tree and then connect her if it works out.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This is Diane’s mother’s marriage record. Unfortunately, her mother’s mother’s last name is transcribed as Semena. I see Simard, though the i is not dotted.<\/p>\n Here is the marriage record for Virginie;<\/p>\n Everything is going smoothly so far:<\/p>\n Except Ozias and Mathilde should not be living. Next, I am looking for Ozias’ mother. Here is the family in 1861:<\/p>\n Genealogists have to appreciate the maiden name of the mother showing in the Census. I’m coming down the home stretch:<\/p>\n The marriage records are quite helpful:<\/p>\n This couple marries in 1842 in St. Urbain:<\/p>\n Next, I need to connectj Jean Baptiste to Jean Marie Tremblay. The writing for Jean Baptiste’s 1819 marriage record is not all that clear:<\/p>\n I will be happy to take the transcription suggestion:<\/p>\n The writing gets even worse for the marriage of Jean Tremblay and Constance Poitvin:<\/p>\n Here is Donna on Richard’s Chromosomes 2 and 9:<\/p>\n Dona paints a new area on Chromosome 2.<\/p>\n Here are Chromosomes 16 and 22:<\/p>\n There is some conflict on Chromosome 16 as Christine represents Delisle on the Lefevre side. So it is possible I got that connection wrong or there may be more than one connection.<\/p>\n Here is how my wife’s Aunt Lorraine matches Diane at Gedmatch:<\/p>\n Diane adds to Lorraine’s Chromosome2 and 4:<\/p>\n Diane’s match also overlaps with some more recent Pouliot matches on Chromosome 6.<\/p>\n Diane is consistent with other matches on Chromosome 16 and provides Lorraine’s first maternal match on Chromosome 22.<\/p>\n Suzy’s real name is Virginia, just to add to the confusion.<\/p>\n Suzy has a smaller match with Diane at Gedmatch:<\/p>\n Donna paints new regions of DNA on Suzy’s chart:<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\nTrying Gedmatch<\/h2>\n
