Both you and Mark are my 11th/ 12th cousins - welcome and nice to meet you both. I'm currently in Poland. Full time lawyer in hedge funds space and Oxford post doc

No direct bloodline to Woodrow Wilson for you.

Your MacDonald tree is in question. First, look at this...

https://www.geni.com/merge/compare/6000000153781314450?return=dupli...

These are both showing as father to James MacDonald

Somethin' ain't right...

In his description... "James G son of j BaillieMiramichi n.b." does not... in my opinion... translate to son of Alasdair Seamus Alexander MacDonald, of Long Point. Might the j stand for John? Who knows. Alasdair is showing two sons by the name of James. James G needs to be disconnected from Alasdair.

I am not trying to be rude or anything... just pointing out facts. I hope you and everyone here on geni had a blessed Merry Christmas.

Diana not a problem and I know- this is an in law connection and not a blood relation to Pres. Wilson. As to my ancestry, I've done alot of DNA testing and I'm now on Y FULL the official DNA site for family tree makers. My SNPs dated between AD 1000 and 1200 and places me in Scotland. I have over 100 confirmed DNA matches and again looks like you and Mark are my cousins . About "James " James is on Y Full as well and his haplo is same as mine E-M2 which is rare for Scotland but there is 2 pct or more of Scots with this haplo. James was born in Inverness Scotland around 1788. He is descendant of the Sleat McDonalds. However when i started using Geni I entered his cousin James Baillie based on old Jamaican archived records. Both James have a common ancestor John Macdonald Lord of the Isles b. circa 1320. I had to manually enter James Sleat McDonald into Geni but it still pulls up per Geni World Tree matches with James Baillie

You said "I have over 100 confirmed DNA matches and again looks like you and Mark are my cousins." . We do not show as a match here on geni.... where do we show as a match?

Just updated autosomal test results into Geni. I did the Big Y and this is on FTDNA and Y- FULL databases. We dont match on the basic 5 generation autosomal level- this is further out. My current 100 matches are based on my Big Y going back 1000 plus years.
