Ireland Resources / Re: King Niall's descendants article

I just got my brother's DNA test results and through research and contacting the FTDNA "RM222 Haplogroup Project" I discovered that he (my brother) fits the parameters of this group of possible descendants of King Niall.  The article from FTDNA is at: http://www.familytreedna.com/landing/matching-niall.aspx

Durham / Re: Looking for Thomas Reardon

Wow!  I'm pretty new to this site and already I'm amazed with other members willingness to help me in my search  :)  I need to source the marriage location--I think I got that info from my cousin who isn't too diligent when it comes to documenting things.  I know that the surname is REARDON though, so I'm not sure about the record mentioning Jones.  The beta search info is really helpful--I should have added the children's information to my original post:

Durham / Looking for Thomas Reardon
« on: Thursday 18 November 10 15:04 GMT (UK)  »
I have run into a brick wall with my second great grandfather Thomas Reardon and hope that someone may have more information.  Here is what I know: Thomas Reardon was born abt 1840 in Ireland and died bef 1924 in Durham, England.  He was Roman Catholic.  He married Rose Ann (also listed as Roseanna) Harvey at St. Mary's Church in Sunderland, Durham (unsure of the year). He likely lived in Thornley, Durham later in life. He worked as a bricklayer journeyman.

I don't have any definite evidence of a link here, but tell me what you think:
My third great grandfather John Mellon was born abt 1818 in County Antrim. He emigrated to County Durham, England and worked in the coal mines. I have not had much luck with source material aside from the census, and he drops off after 1871. It would be great to connect the dots!
