DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Samuel 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 Samuel:

McCoy-8280 and McCoy-578 appear to represent the same person because: Doubtful there were 2 Samuels born within a year to the same parent(s). Either one of them has the wrong parents, or they are duplicates.

Hi, I am researching my ancestors. My great grandmother was cora Alice McCoy who defends from Samuel and Bernina. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hello. I was adding the parents of Calista Jane McCoy and I came across this protected project. There are two sources that link Calista to Samuel McCoy. Calista's Wiki ID is McCoy-7795. Both sources are on her profile. Her mother was Benina "Nina" Phillips. I hope I gave you enough information. I'd sure like to link her up to her proper family. Thanks a bunch! Laura Clay-3803.
