Family and research connections

Research notes

Part of Kilronan Branch 2. Facts below are reported by the 21 September 2026 GEDCOM extract, pending original-source review.

Family relationships

Reported father: Frank McManus. Reported mother: Norah Agnes Cleve.

Siblings listed in the export: May McManus.

Research notes

The export reports 28 October 1883; earlier chart material gives 1886. Catherine Maltida Nelson (spelling as exported) is the reported spouse, with no marriage date. Their children are beyond this three-generation import. This historical Frank James (died 1959) must not be confused with the living Branch 2 DNA tester.

The connection above this branch to the shared R-FT194071 paternal ancestor remains unresolved.
