the suggested parents to Samuel Gamble born 1770 are Samuel F. Gamble b. 1730 and Elizabeth Johnson b. 1737.  Their suggested parents are younger, John Johnson b.1745 and Mary Ward b.1752.  I have dna connections to their children, except the birthdates are way off.

I'm going to remove her mother and siblings, Elizabeths that is. and try some more.

I have both Johnson and Morrow (Marr) in my lines. I can’t find definite proof for my gg-grandfather born c.1784. I’ve had a little more luck on the Johnson side. Good luck. I’ll try to stay in touch.

I have DNA links to these people listed as siblings to Elizabeth Johnson b.1735-1740 in Pennsylvania, including Elizabeth, Martha, Allen, Micajah and Parthenia.  Their age differences are more in line with being children of hers rather than siblings, plus, they are from South Carolina.  The marriage to Samuel Gamble shows Elizabeth to be around 30 years old in a time when it was common to marry at age of 15.  I'm beginning to suspect Elizabeth was not born a Johnson but was previously married to a Johnson and lived in a different state at that time and these siblings really are her children.  Speculation.
