DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Enoch 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 Enoch:

I believe that you have the wrong parents linked here. See https://lessutton.tribalpages.com/ a database focused on descendents of Solomon Cox and Naomi Hussey. Enoch is listed as the son of Solomon Cox (1730-1812) and Ruth Cox (1733-somewhere between 1795 and 1799). These parents are consistent with those listed in find-a-grave.

Margie,

This looks like a profile I adopted at some point. I have never done any editing on this person.

After a quick look, it seems as if this is quite a tangle. I will look into it further when I have time.
