It may be possible to confirm family relationships with John 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 John:
Added sources and verified date of his death. Middle name Benjamin is from Family Search profile. As an Army veteran with service related disabilities, I am limited to copy and paste information. Not always able to decipher these clues, leave that to the scholars. Links are included to help others access that info.
The middle of Benjamin seems highly suspect. Very few people had middle names during this era. The only "source" for this name is apparently FindAGrave. Please post a reply if you have better evidence.
GDMNH gives his date of death as 3 Sept. 1727. Whether this is the exact date of death or not, he made his will on 18 Aug. 1727 and his widow married Thomas Rawlins c. 1731. Thus the 1761 date is impossible.
