No I have not done any DNA testing, I think I quite like leaving an element of doubt.   ;)
There may actually have been more that you know since another branch of my tree appears to go back to a Susan McMullin of Aghadowey

Hi All

Thanks for all the great info here. My grandmother was Catherine Conley (or Connoly) Mary Conley's sixth child.
I'd like to say I had lots of family information but I don't, virtually everything I have picked up is from the various geneology sites.

From what I can determine Martha & James Spence, Catherine Connoly & James Conley or Hemphill (Jeannie's son) must have moved to Greenock sometime after Martha & James wedding in 1912 & before or during  1915.

The 1921 Scotland Census lists Martha's son Jas aged 13 & having been born in Belfast, if we can rely in this information, it has my grandmother as Kathleen & born in Renfrewshire, then I think his birth certificate might be found here.

There is no giiven name & from what I can gather 51 Lisburn road was a Workhouse and Infirmary and maternity hospital  but I'm sure you will have much more accurate information than me.
