DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Johnson by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Johnson:
The images clearly say Dakins, but if you spend much time with the old wills and documents it's clear how fluid names and spellings really were. Common to find multiple variations for the same person, so it may not make much sense to think of one of those as "right".
