DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Elijah 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 Elijah:
I would love to Bryna, but there seems to be some conflicting sources. It's been on my list for quite some time to do more research and try to nail down the truth but life moves fast right now.
My suspicion is that "Mary Mure" was actually born with a different LNAB (possibly Comfort), "Mary Unthank" is actually Elijah & Hannah's daughter, and "Mary Gallimore" is a conflation with a 1st cousin based on unsourced FAG info. But uncertain on which children belong to which Mary and need more concrete evidence before tossing profiles into the wind never to be seen again. If you have any primary source info or would like to dig into some research I'd be happy to work with you as time permits. Thanks!
Stanley-1542 and Stanley-536 appear to represent the same person because: Edited to match my sources, the sources originally imported with the GEDCOM were absolute gibberish with multiple contradictions and no facts. As a member of the National Stanley Family Association, I am working my way through to get Thomas Stanley's three sons James Stanley 1688-1754, Thomas Jr. Stanley 1689-(b)1764, and John Stanley 1691-1783 and their known descendents corrected. James & Catherine only had 1 son named Elijah and he was born in 1750. Please merge.
Stanley-1542 and Stanley-536 appear to be the same person -- same parents, same wife -- but there are some seemingly large differences in dates and places and lists of children. Are these truly the same person, or are they different people who somehow got intertwined?
