Q: Can you help me identify my grandfather?
CAROL WRITES:
Dear Karen
I wonder if you can help me to discover who my biological grandfather was.
I have tested on Ancestry DNA and confirmed that my biological grandmother was Kathleen Wylie born 1898 in Belfast. Her father was David Wylie (corn mill manager, Belfast on 1911 Irish census). She gave birth to my father Benjamin Louis Wylie on 1 September 1921 in the Clapham Maternity Hospital London. He was adopted when he was about six weeks old via a Roman Catholic organisation in London.
My father’s birth certificate showed no father but his baptism record named his father as Benjamin Goad, which I am sure now is not true.
I have many matches to the Coghlan family on Ancestry and I know that at least one male was in London in 1920. I wonder if you could look at my DNA results and perhaps give me some idea of who my paternal grandfather might me.
I have much more information should you need it and hopefully
