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:

Would this HICKEY have lived in America, then gone back to Ireland and had a son, and then return to America?

re: Son JOHN HICKEY BORN 1708

I guess it's possible, but I've seen no evidence of this. Of course there is very little information from that time period here.

I've seen Hissey as a family name for the line from this Hickey on back. Does anyone have documentation for the name change and evidence that it is indeed the same man, since John is so very common a given name. Also, members of the Southern Colonial Project have informed me that a middle name was quite uncommon in the pre-1700s era. Do we have any documentation for John to have a middle name?
posted by Deborah (Burton) White
I believe one of the John Hickeys was a John Cornelius, but I think that one was later. They usually didn't provide middle names. There were apparently several John Hickeys before the American Revolution.

Hissey could have been a misreading of a written document. My maiden name, Cruey, is transcribed as Oury on one census. Fortunately it's my grandparents on this census, so I'm sure it's them.

Hickey-481 and Hickey-339 are not ready to be merged because: Clarence John Hickey appears in both bios. Husband of Elizabeth Thompson
posted by Janne (Shoults) Gorman
Hickey-481 and Hickey-339 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, same birth year, same children, same possible wife
posted by Neal Parker
Hickey-1504 and Hickey-339 appear to represent the same person because: Different first name but same date of death and place
posted by Maureen Ahern
Hickey_Hissey is not a correct naming convention on WikiTree. Please change his Last Name at Birth to Hickey. Then put the other spellings in the Other Last Names field, separated by commas. Thanks!
