DNA confirms there is ONE Thomas Graham Melrose (1806, Scotland - 1888, Michigan)

Excitement is immense here. This week we have a MAJOR DNA confirmation on the Melrose line.

Thomas Graham Melrose, my 4th great grandfather, who married Mary Anne Irvine is the very same
Thomas Graham Melrose that married Anna O'Neil in 1848, Motréal, Québec. Research shows that Anna is also known as Horrigan, Harrigan, Wilson and Willston.

This is confirmed with a triangulated match of a great grandson of Thomas Graham Melrose and Anna O'Neil to a great great grandson and great great great granddaughter of Thomas Graham Melrose and Mary Ann Irvine.

Charlie 'Charles' Miller 1894, Bingara, NSW - 1949, Fremantle, WA

Pop on over to Charles Miller's profile at WikiTree, his biography is now complete, if you have information to add, please leave a comment on his page or if you have photo's please share and add them.  How fantastic, 5 DNA connections, we have an awesome family, thank you!

At times like this when I complete a profile, I feel total awe that we started out with Mum's parents names only and total magnificent appreciation in being able to get to know this family as though we really did meet them and know them is nothing short of miraculous, thank you to all the family along the way that have shared the history to bring this to fruition.  This is as much for you as us, Rhonda and Peggy x

Person: Lily May Lucas nee Hodges (01 Jun 1915 - 30 Dec 1976)

Today is the 37th anniversary of the passing of my paternal grandmother Lily aka Dixie (you guessed it this blog was named after her).  When family pass I am a firm believer of keeping their essence alive and a part of our lives, without them we wouldn't be who we are, so in honouring her memory today I am sharing a snippet of her tree.

It is believed her father is a gent named Harry Jamieson as told to me by my grandfather when I expressed an interest in our family heritage all those years ago.  I am hopeful that one day DNA will be able to shed some light on this or point us in the right direction to fill in this branch for her, I'm hopeful she won't shoot me down for doing this, it's done with love in the heart <3
