DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with George 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 George:
Redmon-338 and Redman-1529 appear to represent the same person because: they share the exact same vital statistics. The difference in the spelling of surnames needs to be rectified.
I've added a couple more photographic sources that corroborate the document of the "Estate Closing of Thomas Redman," which states that George Redman is the spouse of both Nancy Brizendine and Keziah Ford. One photo enumerates the daughters of George Redman with Keziah Ford, one of who is Martha Jane, listed on Wikitree. The other is a "Guardian Accounting of the Redman Sisters," in which Keziah Ford also is listed. Do those sources help with the merge?
Redmond-1636 and Redman-1529 appear to represent the same person because: they share the exact same vital statistics, the same spouses, Nancy Brizendine and Keziah Ford, and use the same FindAGrave.com source.
Redman-1529 and Redmond-1636 appear to represent the same person because: more sources have been provided to prove the marriage relationships of George Redmond/Redman.
First, congratulations on reaching 100,000+G2G points!
As for George Redmond/Redman, I've found sources that spell the surname as "Redmond" when it originates from England and "Redmon" when it comes from Scotland. In the United States, the surname spelling often changes to "Redman." My vote is for "Redmond" since the name originated in the British Isles, but I'd also include "Redman" as a secondary surname.
Since he is purported to be born in England, we should use the england spelling of "Redmond" lacking any evidence otherwise. I think we are confident he was not born in America, therefore the American spelling is not applicable.
I had this profile conflated in my head, he is listed as born in United States, so I'd go with "Redman" unless we have evidence to the contrary. Best would be if we had a record from around when he was born giving the spelling used by the family. E.g., a birth record for him or a land record for his father around the time of his birth.
Redmond-1636 and Redman-1529 appear to represent the same person because: the birth dates are similar, and the marriage date is exactly the same, although for different spouses. In the biography section, one source indicates that the marriage date is for the first wife, Nancy Brizendine, which syncs with the other profile. Also, the different surnames need to be rectified.
