Hi~
I just read a comment you left on John Matheson's wall re. DNA testing of other John Mathesons. I wonder if you have any results for Red River Settlement Matheson descendants?
The Red River Settlement was located at the forks of the Red and Assiniboine and grew into Winnipeg, MB. It began in 1811, with the first Mathesons arriving in 1813. These Mathesons were from the parish of Kildonan in (northeast) Sutherland, Scotland.
I came across your name (at least I think it was you he mentioned!) in a presentation available on youtube looking at DNA evidence vs the Irish Annals by a Mr Larkin. The presentation noted that you had done extensive work on linking the Scot's modal L1065 signature with having Dal Riadan origins. I wonder if it would be possible to communicate with yourself about this work?
