Biography
The public master copy of my research is maintained at http://www.dorneyfamilyhistory.net/famtree_web/
I live in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
I only manage profiles of people that are either blood relatives or their spouses, so if you see my name on a profile I'm related! I Manage 4,821 profiles as at 13 April 2020.
The one exception is a Dorney branch which I am linked to circumstantially. The only living male descendant of this line never replied to a contact attempt, so my chance of ever proving the connection is slim.
Of course some of my blood relatives are managed by other people as well.
I do a lot of edits as part of the Data Doctors project, so I'm not just editing my relatives.
Completed Genealogy Goals
- Biographies written for all ancestors of my children
- All blood relatives and spouses entered (where deceased and straightforward to do so) (ca 7,300 persons in tree as at 13 April 2020)
- Tree extended using Ancestry's thruline tool
- All person and photo hints at Ancestry checked (I will repeat in the future if I ever get an Ancestry subscription again)
- Gone through Wikitree matches - just same year and surname, too big a task otherwise
- Gone through familysearch matches - probably needs doing again but task is very big and tedious
- Uploaded available ancestor photos
- Photographed all headstones at South Brisbane Cemetery (billiongraves project)
Future Genealogy Goals
(more or less in order)
- Research and add in my German relatives - this is not straightforward due to the language
- Reduce my degrees of separation - filling out everybody within four degrees of separation of myself seems like a good start
- Keep contributing to various Data Doctor projects
- Check my connection each week to the featured profiles and make sure the trail appears correct

Your England Leaders are completing the six monthly check in with all team members. I wanted to thank you for your work on English Profiles. These are unprecedented and difficult times, and we understand as Project Leaders that your situation may have changed somewhat in the last few months. What we are all able to/ wish to contribute on Wikitree has changed. Please let me know if you are happy with your current role and team choice or if you wish to do something additional or different. Thank you again on behalf of all the project leaders for everything you do!
Kindest Regards, Amy Utting
Also, while looking up your ancestor, I found an Isaac Love in an 1849 land assessment document living in the same building in Cork City as a William O'Brien (maybe related to Mary O'Brien?): https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G94J-MSFZ?i=304&cc=2329951&personaUrl=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3AQVMG-3Q27
Other Cork family names I am working on: Hunt, Love, Compton, Kemp, Rountree, Ball. I haven't yet had the opportunity to upload my tree to WikiTree, but you can have a look at Family Search if you like.
Let me know if you find a connection, and PM me if you like.
On behalf of the England Leaders, I wanted to say a huge thank you for all your contributions towards the project in the past six months as a Team Member for GEDcoms and Managed Profiles. We've achieved a great deal during this time and we couldn't have done it without you.
Are you happy to stay in your current teams and the project as a whole? Are there any other teams you'd like to join? What are we doing well, and what would you like to see us doing differently moving forwards?
Please respond to this message via e-mail. I look forward to hearing from you.
Many thanks,
Susie, England Project Leader :-)
Regards,
Margaret

Many thanks for all your work. I have inserted the date of birth and death for Michael Hallissey. When I have more time I hope to add some more information to the Hallissey tree. Ellen
