DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with William 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 William:
I believe we are missing a generation in this Farmer lineage and that this Farmer-351 is actually Henry Farmer III. His father is Henry Farmer Jr, and the missing generation is a Henry Sr. (1625-1668) son of the Immigrant Thomas. My information comes from a 2003 book researched by a descendant. I have excerpted the relevant pages and posted on my pages for James Farmer (Farmer-4505). Can someone review that excerpt and share your thoughts?
