My ancestor Thomas Lynch was born about 1799 in Ireland.  He married Esther Adams (1812-1895), daughter of John and Jane Adams.  Thomas and Esther emigrated to Pennsylvania before 1831 when their first child was born in North Manheim, Schuylkill county, Pennsylvania.

DNA shows that I share heritage with descendants of John Lynch (about 1810-Dec 1890) of Meenalooban, Desertegny, Inishowen, Donegal who married Mary McCarron.  Their son, Edward, born about 1849 and died 1911 In Inishowen, married Letitia McAteer (1866-1938).

Information about the ancestry of John Lynch may show how I am connected to him.
