Anyone want to have a guess at the date on this one?
I have a feeling it would be 40's as well, but it could also be quite earlier

This is a real long shot, but I have a couple of photos here I am trying to guess the age on.



I have done some research for this one and it seems to be in front of the "Statue of Havelock" in Trafalgar Square. I believe the boy is either Edward, Frederick or Arthur Wright. They were born in 1902, 1904 and 1908 respectively. I am just guessing but this photo might be in the 1910's due to the uniform. Then again it might be from WWII and I am just clueless 



This photo was found in my great grandfathers belongings when he died, they might be his parents but not sure

I understand this may not be possible, but educated guesses are welcome

Photos are almost certainly from London and surrounding areas.

Oh, well I'm not too interested in finding out a Family Tree way of seeing how we match, it doesn't interest me too much since I know it would be far too much work.

It was mostly querying the accuracy of such low CM matches. Could it match you with someone you aren't related to at all?

"Shared Matches" on Ancestry won't show any names with less than 20cm DNA in common with you or him.

He probably shares less than 20 with those people

Do these matches have the same contact person?

Yes.

Those are likely links of an uncle or aunt to a niece or nephew, or a grandparent to a grandchild, half siblings, or double first cousins.

The top looked progenitor/offspring to me. Followed by half sibling. Followed by half nieces/nephews. That was what I was thinking of the results.

When I transferred from the usual Gedmatch to Genesis, It brought up about a dozen bizarre matches which were an error.

You could identify them because, although they showed on the one-to-many list, some very high up my table ( 9 in the top 70), if you went further, and did a 1-to-1 match comparison, it told you you had 0 cM of common DNA.  I had to email gedmatch, and they resolved the problem!!

In the attachments of my 2nd post are a couple of the 1-to-1 comparisons. They're consistent with the one-to-many match results; very high in cM count.

I'm still somewhat expecting (hoping?) it to be an error of some kind.

Have you emailed them?

Probably not an error.
