DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with John 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 John:
Bilyeu-5 and Bilyeu-115 do not represent the same person because: Conflated profiles. Bilyeu-5 was never in Missouri. DOD is unknown. Wife unknown, but not Sarah McGrew. Needs a lot of work to properly source and separate these two different men.
