It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Solomon 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 Solomon:

Tamara,

I noticed on another profile, you mentioned having the family bible ... Could you please list the b. dates shown for Solomons' children?

Thank you.

A warning received while editing:

Check the data. A father's death date should not be more than nine months before one of his children's birth dates. -- Notice that he is said to have died before his last two children were born.

Leach-2088 and Leach-280 appear to represent the same person because: This is the same Solomon Leach listed in my family Geneology. All the info you have listed matches. I have his birth date as certain on 2/19/12, which is also listed under your ref for birth, so that confirms it, if you would make that change. The ref I have is as follows: "(Mayflower index, #21255)-(May Descendant, 14/182)-(Bridgewater Vit Rec 1/208, 211-2/239)-(Hist Bridgewater, 239,240)-(Lawrence leach of Salem 1/15,29). So you could add that ref as well. Or if you wish, add me to your trusted list and I will happily make the entries.

It would make sense to merge the two.
Leach-1968 and Leach-280 appear to represent the same person because: trying to reduce the number of duplicate's
