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:

the FamilySearch link in sources (John Dalrymple on FamilySearch.org, # KGVY-CKL) goes to a deleted profile for John James Dalrymple (1735–28 February 1798), with the explanation: "This record contains little information: KGVY-CKL. There is enough evidence to believe it is the same person as LKTC-JWX. I merged John's daughter Jean Janet and his wife Mary Margaret Gordon. It is clearly a duplicate record. I am not sure why there is a discrepancy on the death date, however it is clearly a duplicate record."

The surviving record is for John Dalrymple (1735–1805) FamilySearch Person: LKTC-JWX (see the "Discovery" page without having to log in - FamilySearch Person Discovery: LKTC-JWX) and has sources supporting the John who died in 1798. On the Collaborate page is found the following comment from 2023:

This entry looks like two different men, one in SC & one in NC, have been erroneously conflated into a single person. All the different info does not look like it refers to the same person.

The surviving PID has the following "Life Story" on the details page, which is for the John who married Margaret:

Arrived in North Carolina at age 49 with wife Margaret (39), Archibald (15), John (17), Mary (19), James (11), Janet (7), William (2), Jean (5) and Ann (9)
John and his family set out from Glasgow, Scotland in 1775 aboard the "Jackie." They landed in Wilmington, NC, 31 May 1775. The reason John gave in the Emigrant Record for the move was "high rents." The family traveled up the Cape Fear River and settled on Gaster's Creek in Moore County, North Carolina. Eventually John would own1200 acres of land (formerly Moore, now Lee County).
John served as a courier during the Revolutionary War, and in 1801 was serving in the NC House of Commons.

in editing the profile for the Loyalist John (Dalrymple-2253), the following was removed from the datafields:

born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania about 1733

died 28 Feb 1798 (at about age 65), Newberry, Laurens County, South Carolina, USA

edited to add: when wife Susanna Cannon is detached, the marriage info will be lost: married 1760

Dalrymple-2253 and Dalrymple-864 appear to represent the same person because: Potential duplicate - married same spouse
posted by Hans Hofmann
Dalrymple-2253 and Dalrymple-864 do not represent the same person because: based on the text for the Loyalist John, these are two different men.

I added notes on his will. The attached Rebecca maybe not his daughter???
