Ancestor List for Robert Whitcomb Sr

View or download a list of up to 20 generations of ancestors who meet a wide variety of criteria, map them, and more.

DNA Ancestors and DNA Descendants 
Designed to help you use genetic testing to confirm and expand Robert's genealogy. The DNA Ancestors page shows the specific ancestors from whom Robert gets his Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA.

DNA Ancestor Confirmation Aid 
A step beyond the DNA Ancestors and DNA Descendants views. The ambitious goal: scientific confirmation of each parent-child relationship in Robert's tree.
