Takk "Anton" for dine nyttige bidrag her med dette mysteriet om norske aner. Det som er merkelig er att faren "Gerard Karl Connelly" som oftes nevnes med den "norske anen" i media hvor man enn leser om han på nettet, men bare ikke i familietreet/Wikitree? Gerard Karl Connelly (1941-2008) | WikiTree FREE Family Tree

 

Jeg såg forresten att Jennifer og en datter hadde vert på ferietur til "Oldedalen/Stryn" og "Geiranger" forrige sommer 2024. Jeg tenkte att det muligens var en hint til hennes norske arv?? https://www.facebook.com/JenniferConnelly/posts/road-trip-in-norway-with-my-girl-and-some-llamas-️/1036797334471240

 

Om vi ikke finner utav dette mysteriet så tenker jeg att man kanskje får ta kontakt direkte til kilden nemlig "Jennifer" selv, alternativ sende en fb-melding?

DANIEL WINKLER skrev til mig. Men jeg blir ikke så mye klokere på det da det virker og vere data fra flere kilder som er blandet sammen, som også ANTON nevner.

 

I haven't been able to link to Gerard Karl Connelly from my tree. There is one source that lists Gerard Karl as the son of my great uncle (https://www.geni.com/people/Gerard-Connelly/6000000017672192532) but I haven't been able to verify this and think Gerard Karl is likely the son of a different couple. There is a different parent for Gerard Karl on this ancestry tree but with fewer details (https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/108380369/person/412202498718/facts). This tree seems better sourced and suggests Gerard Karl isn't connected to my tree: https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/18019519/person/392423045727/facts. Have you been able to source his birth record or an obituary that definitively lists his parents names? Thanks for reaching out. Your research sounds intriguing and I'm happy to try to help with this puzzle.   I only realized now that the geni tree I uploaded years ago has Gerard Karl in and I'm embarrassed to say this might be a source of the misinformation. I hope not but it's worth considering. The geni tree I uploaded in 2021 was poorly sourced and seems to have a larger and different set of siblings for Gerard Karl that the geni tree I linked to in the previous message. That person cites a MyHeritage tree but I don't have an account for that website to see what other information they might provide. Just wanted to clarify this.

Familietrærne på Ancestry.com er et skikkelig rot. Jeg er ikke sikker på om jeg kan hjelpe. Det er to Connelly-familier som ser ut til å være blandede. En fra Brooklyn, New York og en fra Jersey City, New Jersey. ngen av dem ser ut til å ha noen tilknytning til Norge.

Kildene er ikke gamle i 1950-årene, og familiene er store, slik at det ikke burde være denne forvirringen.

 

Familietrærne i New Jersey har riktig fødselsdato i 1941, men kobler ham deretter til mannen som ble født i New Jersey i 1936.
