For this weeks 52 Ancestors post, I am writing about my children's paternal ancestor Anne Marie Chatterton.

Anne Marie Chatterton was born 17 Apr 1824 in New Carlisle, Quebec, Canada.

Anne Marie Chatterton was the daughter of Amasa Chatterton and Nancy Ann Huntington. 

Anne Marie Chatterton was baptized 14th Dec 1826

So we can tell that the parents were not able to write their names.  It was an Anglican / Church of England baptism.  

Anne Marie Chatterton married Hugh Thompson 12 Dec 1843, the same date that Hugh's sister Margaret was married to James Flowers.

Genetic Genealogy / DNA testing

My children's father Michael John Stewart had tested his DNA at 23andMe. 

We would love for more people who are descendants of Hugh Thompson and Anne Marie Chatterton to test there as well so we can identify the segments of DNA that he has inherited from this couple.
