I think a dna test would be the only way to find out something on the fathers side. The surename changes going back. On one marriage cert the son has a different spelling then his father! I've look through 100's of records at this stage. Annoying because I put in a few details from my mother's side and I've about 60 relatives going back to 3x great grandparents show up in hints.

I broke my ankle in similar circumstances. When I went in to A&E and they sent me home until the swelling went down. When it did I got the x-ray.

Same as myself. They usually wait 3 days or that

Went to count cattle this evening and jumped off the gate, twisting my ankle. A good mile from home and couldn't foot the clutch. Pain killing me. Had to phone brother to come get me.
I'd still be there if it wasn't for the mobile. A reminder to all.

I'm not comparing you to a horse but running cold water over your ankle for 15/20 mins will help

That or fast running stream/river get the foot in there and it works wonders. Our physio/miracle man sends to the sea or river with any injuries.

Got a bag of frozen peas on it when I got home. That seemed to help alright. Making it around with an old walking stick my late father had. Crazy thing is he twisted his ankle in the same field when I was young. He hopped of the tractor when cutting hay. My brother and I had to carry him over under a big ash tree in the corner of the field as it was a scorcher of a day.

Absolutely worthwhile - and for a relatively small cost.

I thought my crowd never travelled far from home also but it turns out not to be the case when you go back more than two or three generations.

For instance, bought a test for the wife at Christmas and discovered that we are related just over seven generations back. As I said. I discovered a connection to Black Jack Kehoe through a decendent of his brother. I had never heard of a family connection to him before presumably because he was hanged for murder and it just wasn't talked about.

As regards the ethnic ancestry, yes it does give an indication especially with the Gedmatch ancient DNA matches and analysis. For instance my forebears are marginally more Northern European than my wife's who are more mediterranean which I think shows the influence of different early migration into Ireland.

The ancient DNA which compares your DNA to DNA recovered from archaeological DNA is very interesting and even shows how much Neanderthal you have - I have more than the Mrs which she says figures

Do you gave a minor injuries unit nearby? Or vhi clinic or similar

I'm not far from Limerick so I'd say could find somewhere alright.

Have you got the swelling down?

It takes away a lot of the pain.

My daughter twisted her ankle by bouncing out of a bouncy castle at public event. I carried her into the red cross ambulance as it was too painful to walk on, they treated it with alternating hot and cold compresses and stuck at it much longer than we would have at home. Swelling went down within half an hour and she walked out of the ambulance , tenderly, but much better than I could have expected.

Sorry to hear of your accident, you should have it checked out. It happened to me, coming down the stairs; I missed the last step and turned over on my ankle. I was making light of it, but was persuaded later that day to go for an X- Ray. I had an Avulsion fracture of the ankle and it needed a cast for 6 weeks with follow up physio.

You just enter a word and it brings back what questions people Google about that word.

So say you put in "Kerry".
A common question for Kerry is "Will they beat Dublin?"

It's really worthwhile doing the DNA test. Do it with Ancestry and you can download the results and upload on many other sites including Gedmatch where there are Ancestry groups based on Surname or County.

Its great fun. I discovered that Black Jack Kehoe was a first cousin of a Great Grandmother.
