Hello David! Greetings from the USA! My sister, Catherine DiGrazia, recieved a message from you as you came up as 2-3ard cousins. I Only match you and I believe your son at 5-8 cousins range. Cherry would be the common ancester if my 3rd Cousin's deductions are correct, braafe is her user name. You have shared matches to 10 known cousins to me or found where they are in my tree, in Ireland, the US & now Australia. Anne Cherry appears to be the first cousin of my 2ond great grandmother. Cratloe, County Clare Ireland is where our matches originate. I'm John FitzGerald & I believe we are 5th cousins. my wife is the administrater of our trees. Send me your user name and I can invite you to view the tree. My uncle Rfitz45 has also done extensive genealogy research prior to all these DNA sites coming about. My 2ond G Grandmother married a Cherry from Woodcock Hill, Clare so it gets interesting trying to find which line everyone is from. Your cousin, John Fitz ps Christopher is your son?

Hello again David. Yes, we are confirmedDNA matches already on Ancestry. 5th cousins although our Centamorgan numbers are to high to get that match in the dropdown menu. I am down the tree from James Cherry. Both sites are administrated by my Wife. I am JF managed by Estel on Ancestry and Catherine D is my sister-you showed as a second cousin to her and that's who you originally messaged . There's always the possibility we are related on another family line increasing the strength of our relationships but in my line of Cherry's there was a close cousin marraige that undoubtedly increased the numerous matches. That cuz, is how we're related. All the best, John Fitz. ps, My sister a shared match to your son Chrisopher as well.
