Why Should I Participate?
Great question. All I can do is tell you why I did. (OK - my dad did, and I paid for it...needs to be a male Munley/Manley/Munnelly...preferably the oldest one). I was frustrated, and I know I'm not alone in this, because I had no idea where (specifically) in County Mayo my gggrandfather Patrick Munnelly was from. How do I find his parents without this information? Mayo is a big place - where do I start looking? Well, that's where matching our dna with each other can really help! If I'm a match with some lucky person who actually knows where in Mayo his ancestors are from....then I have a great place to start my search! It really narrows the field! Are you getting excited yet?! The more people that participate, the more success we will have. I'm all for it - Yea! for DNA! (No, I don't own stock in FamilyTreeDNA. Why do you ask?)
