DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Thomas 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 Thomas:
Lilly-242 and Lilly-687 appear to represent the same person because: Please review this one carefully. He is attached to the same spouse, but dates are off...siblings are different..which might mean that one profile has had different children of the same family added...more research is needed...One may just be connected to the wrong spouse or they are the same and if you agree, merge them. If you think they are the same but not ready to be merged create an unmerged match. If they are NOT the same, reject the merge, do the research and remove the incorrect Lilly from the spouse and attached family. Thanks!
