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:

1642 is (probably) too early for John Clark(e) to be born (John would be 60+ when he (first) married and started having children w/ Henrietta)? Doubtful. And that earlier (Clarke-4413) profile lacks any sources on DoB and has no other info sourced. BD of c1670 makes much more sense and profile is fleshed out better.
Please merge newer profile into old one. As it is now this Spalding/Clark(e) area is a complete mess. (John Clarke is not the only problem, but it's a start.)
