Hello Merry,

Your name came up on my morning WIKITree EMAIL because you edited a profile for Ron Boucher (who is a very distant cousin to me).

I also check contributors as well and was surprised to find that we are 10th cousins.... no great surprise since my mother's family is French Canadian and I have a number of other BOUCHER ancestors. What was surprising though is that we are actually related through my father's family. Though I have occasionally found French connections through his mother's BISHOP family who stretch back to the Acadians, this is the first time I have found this connection through is father's English/Scots/Irish/Welch family.

That is so fascinating about our connections. I really don't know that much about my genealogy on either side, so I need to check your family tree to see what I can learn.

Thank you!

You need to check your messages more often!

If you go to my profile, you can scroll to the bottom and click the "Check your genealogical connections with" link. to see how we are related.

Feel free to contact me if you need help.

Thank you! So very interesting, because it appears we're related on both my mom's and dad's side. I've seen Matthews listed on my dad's side, and my mom's ancestors are the French and Bean family, etc. Now I see another branch that might be worth researching and learning about more.

Matthews is actually my former husband's surname. My father is James Harold Bateman (1907- 1997). An unexpected surprise for me was finding that his UK based ancestors that I grew up being aware of actually went back to some French Canadian lines that link to my mother's family many generations back.

An even bigger surprise was finding that her French Canadian relatives who had migrated from MN to Yakima, WA in about 1920, lived on the same road as my dad's Uncle John Marvin.

Wow. Such a small world. My dad lived near Yakima for a few years. My husband and I lived in Richland for a couple of years. If only I'd known my genealogy back then, maybe we could have met in person. (I grew up in North Idaho.) I don't know much about my French Canadian ancestors, but I'm aware of at least one line.

So I just looked again, and you and I are actually related though both of your parents, both through my father. I am betting that there has to also be a connection between me and your father's BOUCHER family.

In the past WIKITree displayed other connections, but this time that was not the case so I had to get a little creative. ;>

Ron and Audrey are 19th cousins four times removed

Ron Boucher and Audrey (Perreault) Bateman are both descendants of Margaret (Totehill) Thornhill (-bef.1412).

Sue, Merry and I have worked together for years on our Ancestry trees and tests; our families match through her Boucher ancestors to her Swain line. Sue, you and I are most closely related on our Farnsworth lines (9th cousins). Of course, like anyone with earliest New England connections, we're related in multiple other ways too.

Sue (Bateman) Matthews

Very likely... I often run into Matthias Farnsworth... surprisingly he is not listed in my matches with Merry.

I would have expected to find this BOUCHER profile though on my French Canadian mother's side.

Usually I find the Farnsworth on my mother's side, though I have also seen them behind my dad.

Here is one example.... my 7th GGF: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Farnsworth-146

Merry, thanks for the merge on Ammi Swain and Abigail Waterbury (your 5GGs and my 4GGs). You match on AncestryDNA to my father (your grandfather's fourth cousin) and to many of our relatives.

You are very welcome. I was glad that you noticed the duplicate profile! I enjoy working on wikitree since they are more diligent about sources and also have the DNA matches. I'm trying to add more of the siblings to each "branch" in my tree, but it takes time. Every time I get a DNA match, I look to see if it can help fill some holes in my tree. I have some fairly large ones. I'm also trying to work on the biographies before all my living ancestors are gone.

I have been interested in genealogy since I was a young girl and I met a cousin who told me stories about my ancestors. Years later, my grandmother sent me a paper copy of her family tree back to the 1600s. Recently, I went through my stepmother's papers and saw her genealogy information. Now that I am retired, I feel like I can finally research my family's history and share it with others.
