There is a death of a John McClelland, Labourer, age 76, in 1896. His nephew, Robert McClelland, present at death. Could it be James' father?

Found a daughter, Mary, born 1865, High St, Newry. Parents, John McClelland & Margaret Peden.

A son, John, born 1867, High St Newry. same parents as above.

I think this family are on 1901 census. In terms of ages, it is possibly John's family. James was 38 on 1901 census.

Funny enough I was just filling in Hugh on my ancestry tree. He migrated to America and was looking to drill for oil. He ended up in New York. I found newspaper clippings supporting as such. He died in 1829

I will add in Elizabeth and Robert.

Here's my tree thus far.

Im having some trouble. I have a DNA match who i'm struggling to see where they match in.

They are from england but their oldest known ancestor was a Patrick McClelland born 1857 who married a Catherine Garvey. They state Patrick was born on Pound Street which is in the High Street area so it does add up that they would be related somewhere.

John & Margaret Ann's son, Joseph, died in 1918, from a fractured skull after falling from a float he was driving.

Patrick McClelland & his family in 1901, He is a Horseshoer.

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai000757169/

If he was born 1857, he is unlikely to be John's son but possibly Robert's

1911 census
