    Hi Cara,

    My connection to the Douglas family comes from William Bliss marrying Elizabeth Marshall, daughter of Elizabeth Douglas b 1755.

    Elizabeth Douglas was the daughter of George Douglas b 1724. I have not yet found a Susanna but I have not done a great deal of research into the Douglas line as I have been concentrating on the Bliss name.

    I took a DNA test through Ancestry. This has been useful in finding matches, however the Y chromosome haplogroup would be the Bliss line as my Douglas link is through a female ancestor.

    If we are both descended from the same George Douglas 1724, then we are 6th cousins once removed.

    Best Wishes, Douglas Bliss

    Hello again Cara 

    Further to my previous reply,  I have been looking at my DNA matches for Douglas relatives and I saw that one of them listed a Susanna as the daughter of George Douglas b 1701, making her the sister, not daughter of George 1724. However I have not seen primary source evidence so I am wary of taking it as fact but it may be worth looking into it. 

    Regards, Douglas
