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.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
"The ancestors and descendants of Isaac Horton of Liberty, New York" lists 5 children for John: John, Daniel, Jonathon, Caleb, and James. Wikitree currently has three: John, Phoebe and Elizabeth. The rootsweb bio above lists Johnathan, Phebe, John, Elizabeth, Caleb and James. My ancestor is Daniel Horton (1702-1769) and I'm trying to place him correctly into wikitree, Any thoughts or evidence on whether this Daniel is actually the son of this John?
