BEGATS AND BEQUEATHALS

Or, Subtitled, “We have letters from our friends in Ireland, acquainting us of their desire to come here”

As the previous posting states, in recent months, I’ve been doing research to assist researchers of American Montgomery families who are combining DNA findings with traditional genealogical research to try to figure out the back-in-time origins of some US Montgomery families, and whether some of these families are genetically connected to each other or not. I’ve been asked to contribute to this venture by researching certain American Montgomery lines that, according to DNA findings, appear to be connected to other Montgomery lines, with a sparsity of good, documented information hindering the attempt to figure out why these families seem to be related to each other.
