DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with David 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 David:
Thurman-2325 and Thurman-707 do not represent the same person because: In the 1810 Census David Thurman had listed only one daughter who has been positively identified as being Elizabeth Betsey Thurman who married Edward Goff in 1815.
Thurman-716 and Thurman-707 appear to represent the same person because: Brothers David and Andrew moved to the Western Bluegrass region of Kentucky. David's daughter Elizabeth named her second son "Andrew" a given name unobserved in the family of her husband. David was apparently deceased or removed before Elizabeth's marriage in 1815.
Mary (Thurman) Langdon (abt.1798-bef.1880) seems more likely to be the daughter of Andrew Thurman (1765-1836), David's brother.
