Can someone with Findmypast lookup the marriage of Thomas Bickley b c 1807 Plymouth,Devon to Elizabeth about 1830ish. Or the baptism of Thomas? Im curious as I DNA match with a couple of people with this lineage. Thought there maybe a connection to my FUGE or LUXMOORE family.
Thanks

There's this one?

Not seeing a baptism in Devonshire from FMP.

Have you picked the family up on a census with a place of birth for Thomas?

Your 1861 census URL takes me to an Ancestry page asking me if I'd like to join Ancestry. Is it the same family as I posted 1851?

1851 &1861 same

1861 from FMP - obviously BRickley isn't a recognised variant !!

thomas is a mariner

Ellen's christening, on the image it gives either Marine or Marrner as Thomas's occupation at the time - can't quite make out which.

You are trying to tie in to ancestry DNA matches, but they had a number of children & you'd need to follow them all and their descendants to see where the connection lies.

Have you tried uploading your ancestry DNA to other sites (eg ftdna or my heritage) both of these accept uploads, and sometimes come up with more matches than ancestry.
