Subject: [DNA] Need feedback with interpretation

I have 3 men in my PLATT DNA group who are a near match, same surname. I will
call them A, B, and C. B and C are documented 3rd cousins twice removed.
Their common ancestor was born in VA in 1794 and had 5 sons. B descends from the
oldest son and C from the youngest. B and C are a 24/25 match with B having a 9
and C a 10 on DYS 459b.
A's ancestor emigrated from Ireland in 1844, but his line was probably from
England earlier, as the family attended an Anglican church. A is a 24/25 match
with B and a 23/24 match with C. He has a 19 on DYS 458 while B and C have a
20. He has a 9 on 459b, matching with B but not with C.
In the REO database the three have a single one-step mutation (12 marker)
with someone from Great Britain, and that is the only near match they have.
I have made the assumption that the three are probably related with A having
the earliest DNA and C the latest. Any discussion of my conclusions and
anything I may have missed would be greatly appreciated.
