Linda,
Very nicely stated . I have observed many of the same things in my Derry R1b1c7 Gallaghers, married into McCools and Maquires . My grgrandmother Moor remains a mystery . Havn't done MT-DNA as yet .

I found it also to be true in my research of my wife's McAdam line of Monaghan and Derrynoose ,Armagh . They went to P.E.I. on a Father MacDonald ship 1841 .
The McAdam DNA of Derrynoose does not match the Scot. Gregor / McAdam DNA as previously thought . It is R1b1c7 .

Dr. Brendan O"Grady [ Exiles and Islanders ]found all the same confused heritage in his studies of P.E.I .
I spent an afternoon with him and he related that when he first arrived and started doing research , each person he interviewed,almost to a man , called themselves Scottish when in fact less than 50% of the Island was Scot . The Scots were the first arrivals so later Irish were assimilated for quite a while .
