DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Abraham 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 Abraham:
The birthdate for his mother can't be correct (1737), given Abraham Jr.'s birthdate of 1739. Also, the accounts of their children differ in your sources section - one says "They had 4 known children: Millicent, Captain William, Obedience and Sarah Dew", the other "Children of Abraham Dew, Sr and Elizabeth Hickman are: Reubin Dew, d. date unknown. Abraham Dew, Jr, d. date unknown. Thomas Dew, d. date unknown, Halifax Co, NC. John Dew, d. date unknown." (2)"
