Research Notes

01 Aug 2022 - William Orr (1922-1990) was originally attached as the son of Joseph Elder, but due to resent "DNA links with matches with McCaffery, Joseph 1872s wife Mary was McCaffery, so his chidren would have McCaffery DNA, Joseph would not share this but his son Joseph 1898 would." [3] William has now been moved down the Elder line to son of Joseph Elder (1898-).
