Quick reply as I have couple other items going this evening. I did try matching in Gedmatch to your father's Lazarus kit LY585897L1 and the result was no match with me, which is what I meant by "I'd like to understand the DNA…"

Spent a few hours going through Ancestry, FTDNA, and Gedmatch looking for the DNA connection unsuccessfully. I did find your family tree on Ancestry, but you did cover the tree relationship in your message. My 2nd and 3rd…"

"Julie,
Wondering if you have made any progress on this line? I'm stumped on my 3rd G-Grandfather in N. Ireland and so have turned to DNA for possible lineage. I have strong Y-DNA matches to two descendants of Thomas Douglas (1721-1794), son of…"

Have no idea whether you are still researching this family line, but interested in newer information that might be available about Archibald and Ireland. I have two close Y-DNA matches that track back to Archibald through Thomas Douglas and…"

Yes I have done Ancestry Autosomal DNA A588257 and my GEDMatch is 6605406.

The embarrassment is all mine.
Thank you for pointing this out to me.

Welcome to our group, Richard.
Maginis (or Magennis) is certainly a name the Douglas family of Devrock use.
My knowledge of the family is very sketchy, as you will have seen: http://www.douglashistory.co.uk/history/families/douglas_of_devrock.html Your DNA evidence may throw more light into this dark corner. I certainly hope so.
Yours aye,
William
