DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Thomas 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 Thomas:

I would like to make some changes to this profile. I note that it is unsourced. Either the parents are wrong, or the birth and death locations and spouse are wrong. The (current) father's profile is well sourced, and its minimal information about the son Thomas states: "Thomas Bracken, b: c1740; d: Feb 1803 PA; m1: ??? KILMARY?COLMERY; m2: Ann SHANNON."

I've added a couple sources to this profile and detached the parents. There is some biographical information available on the FindAGrave memorial, although it will need sources. Meanwhile, I'm going to create a new profile for Thomas, son of Thomas, with whom this man was confused.

Update: I have created the new profile, Bracken-1485.
