Hi Julia
I am still waiting for the test to arrive and then I have to send it back so I guess it will be a while yet. It's one of the things about living in Canada, things take a little longer.

Thanks Julia,

My wife says that any royal blood has long since been diluted in 500 years. It was a complete surprise to me that we were related. I even have ancestry back to 600 France. The reason I asked about the certificate is because I am new at this thing called genealogy and had  no idea what kind of records they  kept back then. I was even surprised they kept records of anything back then even for royalty

 

Hi - Saw your post about PA records on Ancestry.com - they are records that Ancestry acquired from the Pennsylvania Historical Society - about 7.5 million. It is worthwhile checking them out. They had a webinar about them a week or so ago and that should be in the Ancestry Learning Center. A lot of Birth Marriage and Death records plus some vital records from family histories. Family Search also has a bunch of PA records.  What part of PA are you researching? I live in York Co.  Where is your O'Hara?  My cousin's father was from Cazenovia NY and was an O'Hara.

Did you know we have an active chat community here on Gen Wise? There are usually people in the room willing to do lookups, answer questions, give advice, or just talk about genealogy. We also have scheduled talks on various subjects including trivia on Wednesday and Saturday nights. Please join us sometime.
