DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with William by comparing test results with other carriers of his ancestors' Y-chromosome or mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA test-takers in his direct paternal line.
Mitochondrial DNA test-takers in the direct maternal line:
Gosnell-676 and Gosnell-38 appear to represent the same person because: Many of the children of Peter were also attributed to his brother Maurice. The fact they belong to Peter is sourced through the St. Margaret;s parish records or Peter's will. Maurice did have 2 children which are sourced again the St. Margaret;s parish records. The cause of this appears to be some trees which conflated the 2 brothers under the name Peter Maurice Goswell. But these duplicate profiles should be merged together now they have the correct parent names.
