DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Edward by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA. However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line. It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Edward:

Very unlikely that Edward or any other of Arthur Guinness' children were born in Cork. Especially as baptism records can be found for most of them in Dublin eg Edward https://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/1eec960049693

The register showing Edward's marriage is at https://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/display-pdf.jsp?pdfName=d-116-1-1-244

He trained as an attorney at King's Inn.

Sex: Male Marriage: 30 Mar 1796 Marriage Place: St. Audeon, Dublin, County Dublin, Ireland Spouse: Margaret Blair Source: D. A. Chart. Marriage Entries from the Registers of the Parishes of St. Andrew, St. Anne, St. Audoen, & St. Bride (Dublin), 1632-1800. Exeter and London: William Pollard & Co. Ltd., 1913. 185 pages. The periods covered by the four parishes are: St. Andrew, 1672-1800; St. Anne, 1719-1800; St. Audoen, 1672-1800, and St. Bride, 1632-1800. The computerization for first two parishes contain a record almost from the beginning of the parishes in question. The last two parishes are of an earlier origin, but their registers contain no date earlier than 1632, in the case of St. Bride, and for St. Audoen, the registers are not very complete for the seventeenth century. The parish of St. Bride is remarkable for the inclusion of many French names, pointing to the settlement of Huguenot refugees in that vicinity. Frequent reference is made to military personnel from the 5th Dragoons, 6th Dragoon Guards, 7th Dragoons; 11th, 19th, 40th, 42nd, 55th, and 69 Foot; Longford, Warwickshire, and Worcester Militia; the Inverness Fencibles, and Prince of Wales Fencible Infantry.

Guinness-684 and Guinness-11 appear to represent the same person because: Margaret Blair, sister of my ancestor, married Edward, so of Arthur Guinness of brewing fame. These two records, apart form minor flaws, are evidently the same person.
