Rita Kelly McCaughey
My specialist area of family history research, apart from my interest in DNA, is in English and Irish (both North & South) research, along with some Welsh and Scottish, as well as finding details on Ancestors that emigrated to the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
I have been researching my own family tree and continuously learning about genealogy and DNA for over 20 years.
