Mostly their changes just confused me. How could I suddenly be 64% Finnish when I for sure only had one Finnish parent (Mom). I lost my Iberians altogether along with half of my Scottish and Irish relies, but picked up a few more in Western Europe. Before all this I have made contact with a couple o...

If you belong to Facebook, there is a Raitt Family page on there too. David Raitt who authored the website is a frequent poster and many people have posted their Gedmatch kit numbers if you have had your DNA tested and downloaded the results to Gedmatch.

Took a quick look at Ancestry.com. There was an Agnes ME Wright married to Adam Wright on the 1901 census. Don't have a clue what the initials would stand for.

Found Alexander Sr. He died in Kelvin on July 10, 1897 in the Western (?) Infirmary. Son James was the witness. The handwriting on this cert. is difficult to read so I'll let you sort that out.

There are a couple of Canadian Passenger ship lists with a James Wright, b. 1890 on Ancestry.com. Neither has any defining information though. Might be him, might not. The 1911 census has a Catherine McPhee living at 194 Main St. Govan with children Malcolm 11 and Catherine 12. Catherine is a widow ...
