im trying to work out a theory here. so here goes.
my 3rd freat grandmother was called ellen rebecca dwyer. she was born in the 1860's. in order of birth, here are her siblings:
mary catherine dwyer, ellen rebecca dwyer, michael william dwyer, christine rebecca dwyer, and farquhar donald dwyer.
they are the children of andrew dwyer and isabella matheson.
andrew was the son of michael dwyer and catherine twigg. catherine was the the daughter of timothy twigg and ellen keanealy.
isabella was the daughter of farquhar matheson and mary matheson.
farquhar was the son of donald matheson and mary mcrae. mary was the daughter of murdoch and rebecca.
so,
child 1-mary and catherine are the grandmothers names
child 2-ellen and rebecca are the names of the grandmothers mothers
child 3-michael is the paternal grandfather, william could be the paternal great grandfather?
child 4- christine rebecca, was the name of isabella's sister
child 5- faquhar is the maternal grandfather, and donald is the maternal great grandfather, as well as isabella's brother, who died young.
so, by this theory, andrew's father michael was the son of william?
i looked for this pattern in andrew's family, and if this pattern is followed, michael's mother was mary.
any ideas?
