It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Jared 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 eldest son of Jared and Eleanor, John, was born and baptised in 1766 in Prince George's County, Maryland, so they were most likely married there, or at least in Maryland, not in Fauquier County, Virginia, where they moved to and raised their family of 11 children.
