Thanks on the Drumcaw.  My spell check put it back to the wrong spelling.

Yes.  That’s correct. Drumclaw.  Are you any relation ?  Would love to find more details on the Cherrys in Ireland.

Andy - yes. My Cherry’s are from Clough, Drumclaw in Down. My
GGGG GF James was born around 1800 and has a number of relatives, several of which I can trace a DNA connection to. I’ve an Ancestry tree bkcherry29 that is public or I can send you an email link to my tree if you aren’t on Ancestry. My best guess now is that the Cherry’s came over to Ireland in the 1600-1700 from England, probably during the Plantation period or before. Mine left Ireland for Scotland in the 1860-1870s.

Yes I’ve done a DNA test on Ancestry and 23&Me.  I’m also on Gedmatch.  I recently did some research and I do think there is a Cherry link somewhere. My parents emigrated to the US in 1949. However, I am DNA related to Cherry’s that came over to the US in the late 1600s or early 1700s from what I can tell.  Also I’m related to some Cherry line from England that dates around the same time (although my Direct Cherry line in the 1800s are Irish Presbyterians.

Thanks. I just saw this and had forgotten I posted it. I’ve added some more information to my tree since I last asked based on DNA ! I have taken a DNA test with Ancestry. My tree is the Cherry (Cooper) Tree. You can find it by its designation as bkcherry29 or Brian Cherry. I also did a 23&Me and Family Tree DNA test.  You can also look me up on Gedmatch A582392. If you have a tree I’d love to look at it. My email (*) Moderator Comment: e-mail removed in accordance with RootsChat policy,to avoid spamming and other abuses.

Garstonite - thank you very much.  Signed up for the premium service but it looks like this member is no longer a member or doesn't have a public tree.  I've sent the service a question about how to access the tree or contact the member but I'm waiting for a reply !  Thanks again however !

My GG GF was James Cherry, born about 1843-47 in Ballymaglaff, Comber, County Down.  His father was James Cherry and his mother was Mary Rice.  Unfortunately, I can't find a birth certificate for my GG GF, although I've found his first marriage record (to Mary Jane McWhinney/MaWhinney) in Newtownards.  I'd love to find out records of his father James and his mother Mary but I don't know where to look !   I tried Proni but I'm afraid it was not too user friendly for me ! Any advice is appreciated.
