Searching for my long lost family

Question

I have been researching my family tree for the last 10 years.  DNA has been a game-changer for me.  Thru Y-DNA we have been able to confirm our roots back across the Atlantic to Ireland.  Now we are attempting to connect the dots here in the United States.  I look forward to working with all researchers in addition to my family researchers.

Welcome! would like to know if you have any males in your family that have  done a DNA test. I am a Morrison and I manage  several male cousins and my father whose DNA  (I-M253) have extremely close Morris DNA matches. Actually, we have no direct Morrison DNA matches other than our known cousins, but  Morris pops up on every DNA website as very close. Would like to explore more to see if we have a connection.

Answer 1

Hi Shannon, if your Morrison branch includes Jim Morrison of the Doors, then I am a cousin, and am searching for my own evidence of ancestry in Ireland. It is possible that the Crawfords and Morrisons are from similar locations, so looking forward to more info!
