Title: McClelland Cloveneden Loughgall
Post by: Caroline28 on Thursday 22 March 18 17:46 GMT (UK)
Have done an ancestry DNA test which shows me to be a very close match to the McClelland family from cloveneden Loughgall. Would anyone have information on them?

Have you considered these folk in the 1901 census?

George McClelland married Anne Eliza Scott in 1876:

Hi. Yes. I think George & Eliza may be my great grandparents. They had 8 children that I know of. I’m trying to find out more about their children, like where they lived. I know a few of the girls moved to north down, but not sure of where the others would have ended up.

It would be easier if you told us which of the children is your grandparent.
1911

8 children born all alive.
Did you notice Margaret is crossed out on the 1901 Census.

Mary Ann married Henry Leckey in 1906

Lydia and Georgina 1911

Looks like Lydia married Robert Bradford in 1912

I don't know who my grandfather was. Based on the DNA it would probably be either a son or grandson of George McClelland

I have this family (and several related or likely related families) in my database. It would help to know your direct ancestry as far as you know it (names, dates, locations) and that of the person you matched to. If it's about living people or it's personal then feel free to send me a private message.
