Hello!
Just checking to see if you are still on this project. Here's what I have:

Andrew Melville m. Agnes Burns
Children:
Elizabeth
Mary*
Agnes
Sarah
Jane (Jeannie)
Rosanna
Maggie (Margaret)
Olivia
Andrew (1 yr)
Alexander Ross (1 yr)

*Mary married James McKnight - they are my great-great-grandparents. Emigrated to Pittsburgh PA somewhere in 1899-1900.

Attaching a photo given to me by mother - labeled "Andrew Melville (Belfast)"

I don't have any info prior to your timeframe on either him or Agnes. Hope you have been able to find more!

Hi lehman88 and welcome to RootsChat  :)

The OP (Rosniak) was online here earlier this month and will probably see your post.

If you make at least one more post, you can use the RootsChat PM (Personal Message) system to contact them and hopefully exchange E-Mail addresses and other onformation.

Good luck  :)

Hello ands thanks for posting!

Yes, I am still working on the Melville family. Although haven't had much time to work on it recently I am still keen to make progress and link some of the Northern Irish Melville families together.

The photo is great to see so thanks for sharing.

Have you tested your DNA yet and if so maybe you could let me know by private message which company and which name your test is undfer? It would be good to see if you match any of my family as quite a few of us have now tested (mostly with Family Tree DNA which is the best company for Northern Irish matches as they have many testers from there). I don't think you can send or receive private messages until you have posted three times.
