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.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
Johnson-77827 and Johnston-6062 are not ready to be merged because: William Johnson (Johnson-77827) marries Ann Lamplugh in Garton on the Wolds, Yorkshire England in 1768.
William Johnston (Johnston-6062) is born in Nansemonde County Virginia in 1747, and married Annie or Nancy Holland probably in the adjacent Isle of Wight County in 1773 as their sons were born in that county 1778-80.
These two are clearly different individuals, living in different continents. They are clearly not the same person though in this case the different Last Name at Birth is not a factor as the two names are often confused
