    Hi Paul: 

     

    I think we have communicated a long time ago.  After about 12-15 years I am still searching for the connection of my mom's family Isaac Deforest born 1801 in Nova Scotia.  I have so much information on the DeForest I sometimes think somewhere is the clue.  He shows up with his family in CT in 1840 before he is in Rochester in 1850.  I have tried every angle.  I thought for the longest time that he might be a loyalist.  I have found names of Deforest loyalist however I cannot make the connection of them to Isaac.   I hope to go to the New England Genealogical Historical Society in Boston as they have Nova Scotia records.    This summer I did go to Long Island and I saw the old church and grave site across the street.  I would have to look on a map, I think it was Huntington.  Well were ever it was there was a Deforest trace

    I haven't yet had a chance to read the new Sykes book as it's not yet been published in the UK. I've referred to the Wikipedia article you mentioned before and I was also surprised at the large amount of German ancestry. Perhaps we're not so much aware of it as we only have contacts with Americans who are researching their British ancestry.  I understand the chromosome paintings used by Sykes were provided by 23andMe. They are supposed to be refining their admixture analyses to make them a little more detailed, though I'm not sure when the change will take place.

    I saw your comments to Sarah Braun on Ancestry and have to ask you if your wife remembers what Braun family branch settled in Kitchener, Ontario Canada.  My grandmother, Caroline Braun may be a relative of hers.  She was one of 7 children of Michael Braun and Margaretha Hildebrandt.  Her siblings were Valentine, Jacob, Michael, Charles, Margaret and Catherine.  Caroline was married to Philip Lobsinger and they settled in Mildmay.  She was baptized in St. Paul's Luthern Church in Neustadt.  She converted to Catholicism after marriage and her family "disowned her" afterwards.  I'm looking for more information on this family.  Could you please help me or refer me to someone that can?  I sincerely appreciate any help you can give me.  Maureen Weber maw105@aol.com
