DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with James by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
I noticed on another web site that R-M269 haplogroup was the "Hoch" surname from Germany. My understanding is that Capt James Hook's ancestry was from England. This seems confusing to me.
My brick wall is my 3rd grgrandfather, Thomas Hoke. I have wondered if he might be Capt James Hook(e)'s son Thomas but my mother's two Hoke male cousins have haplogroup J-M205 & J-M172. Does this mean they are absolutely not connected to Capt James Hook due to the R-M269 & R-BY3368 haplogroups listed on this profile?
R-M269 is a broad level description, so men from all Western Europe will share that Y-DNA as it goes back say 25,000 years.
You are on the right track though, R and J are two different haplogroups so they will not be related along the paternal line for 10,000s of years.
You may be able to do some research with Autosomal dna that, check out this article: https://thednageek.com/science-the-heck-out-of-your-dna-part-1/
