So far, no evidence for MN of Tandy. There is a FAG entry for "William Tandy Tompkins" with the death date given here, but the MN on the headstone is just T. See Find A Grave: Memorial #98193463. No death record found to confirm this is the same person; no census found to confirm that this William lived in Virginia. (Some of his children do appear to have moved from KY to VA)
1900 census citation is dubious; it appears to refer to this record:[1]
William Tompkins, father-in-law, born May 1827 in Illinois
in household of Kenam Barker
Kenam's wife Marthey A. Barker (referring to Tompkins-188?) born in Virginia
Marriage to Roda Simpson not found. Source given of 1900 census does not make sense, since the marriage is listed as taking place in 1905. Also, William had a daughter named Rodia so there may have been a mix-up.

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 William:
