Biography
Evelyn (Murray) McKelvey is a member of the ERROR IN PARAMETERS
I have been doing my family research for over 40 years, both the old fashioned way and on the computer through Ancestry.com. I have 5 branches to my tree which encompass about 3500 individuals. I have traced my family to the "Mayflower" and beyond and to the era of "William the Conquerer" ..... I am now 82 years of age and I am very much interested in adding my family to the "WORLD TREE". LORD willing I hope I will be able to complete the task.....
The entire WEIR/HIBBARD & MURRAY/GRAY family tree was compiled on ANCESTRY.COM from my Family Records, LDS Family Search, Federal Census Reports, Naturalization Papers and Property Deeds, Immigration Reports and the "Genealogy of the Hibbard Family written by Augustine George Hibbard in 1901" ; as well as information received from The Cumbria Family History Society and the Bishop's Transcripts of Cumbria, England.
I plan to edit each profile with source info as time permits upon completion of GEDCOM submissions. Lord willing!
UPDATE: Well it is APRIL 15, 2020 and I am still editing .... I am writing this just to see how long it might take ....... or I will forget when I started. I am now 85 - BACK TO WORK!
NOTE; I am an 8TH Cousin 1 x removed to Lady Diana Spencer Windsor........ Our 7th Great Grandfathers were brothers. This makes me a 9th Cousin 1 x removed from the future King of England, HRH William Windsor. I received a correction on this relationship calculation from Gilly Wood on 1/21/17. Thank you, Gilly.
I am also, 17th Cousins 5 x removed to Alexander Hamilton. and ------- 5th Cousins 3 x removed to Ulyssis S. Grant.

I have done more research on Joshua Turner, 1795-1827. I find that he was the 2nd husband of my 3rd Great-grandmother, Jane Menham and they had 3 children. ........ Evelyn
Thank you for your interest in joining the Magna Carta Project. I posted a response to your G2G post with details on joining as an affiliate member. If you experience any problems joining feel free to contact me
I see that you are also a descendant of Gateway Ancestor, Peter Worden. That will make it much easier when proving your Magna Carta trail.

In researching the Brewster family I came across two Mary Brewsters born 18 March 1744 : Brewster 1560 and Brewster 2311. Looks like the same person. Should they be merged? Shari Maria (Linton) Brewster
I think your Eve Margaret Schley (Schley-173) is the same as my Schley-14. My Schley -14 has a lot more info on her - husband, etc.
If you know how to merge them, I'd recommend we do that!
