Your Watchlist has 39434 profiles. This is very large. Our systems are designed to handle 5,000. Contributing to more than 5,000 profiles is great (the community thanks you for it!) but don't feel you have to keep so many on your Watchlist. Despite the terminology, there is no shame in "orphaning" Open profiles. :-) This invites others to share responsibility. Since you have more than 10,000, Bulk Trusted List changes tool may not work for you. If so, please contact [email address removed] for help reducing your Watchlist. Also, you may want to spend some time on the unsourced profiles that you manage.
Thank you, Tim Giles

My name is Albert Bruns. I believe that Hiram logan who is supposed to be the half brother of my great great grandfather george william logan is not part of that family. This branch has been thoroughly researched and tested.If one of Hiram’s male Logan descendants has been test for y dna we could clear this up quickly. His birthdate seems to indicate that his father was 11 years old at Hiram’s birth. Let me know what you think. In at least one source it says he was born iin Ireland which doesn’t make sense.

I am managing a name study here on Wikitree for the Britton surname. My particular interest is for those originally from Fermanagh, Ireland.
Heres the name study page - Brittton Name Study Category Page. As you add ancestors to Wikitree please add the relevant category so they appear on these pages too!
If you have DNA tested and your Britton ancestors came from Ireland we would love you to join us at FTDNA in our Brittons of Ireland project. Even if you have tested at another DNA site, its free to transfer your data to FTDNA! I hope you join us! Brittons of Ireland - DNA project support page
