DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Henry 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 Henry:
HENRY MCKINNEY was born unknown possibly Virginia, North Carolina or Tennessee and died 24 Dec 1836 in Cole Co Missouri. He married UNKNOWN by 1790 probably Tennessee. It is possible he is the son of JAMES COLLIN MCKINNEY & SARAH BOONE, but there is no concrete evidence linking him to their family. A Henry has been mentioned as one of their children, born about 1758.
Henry McKinney was one of the first settlers in Cole Co Missouri, moving there from Campbell Co Tennesse about 1815-16. Henry and three of his sons, along with the INGLISH, MILLER, CHAMBERS, GOOCH, and HARMON families built their homes near the mouth of the Moniteau River. They were known as the Tennessee Colony since they had all come from that state.
I believe that Mary Robbins was married to the Henry McKinney from Rutherford NC and not that the one that born in Campbell Co. TN and died in Cole Co. MO. Everything I can find online about Mary has different children listed than what is listed for MO Henry, plus Mary died in NC while what little we know about MO Henry is that his wife died in MO.
With all of that said, can anyone shed some light on who was MO Henry's wife along his parents?
