DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Jonathan by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
Wood-7615 and Wood-3127 are not ready to be merged because: I was all set to merge these two profiles when I discovered that the two men seem to have had different fathers. The fathers have the same name, but their birthdates are very different. I need time to do more research before approving the merge.
Wood-7615 and Wood-3127 appear to represent the same person because: Appear to be duplicate based on dates/locations. Mother has to be resolved (one marked uncertain).
