- Autosomal DNA: B. J. C. (descendant of Edmund Billings, tested at FTDNA) and the family of Shari S (descendants of Rebecca, see DNA links in this profile) share two segments of significant size (20 cM, 12 cM) that are known to be paternal to their family (and therefore a potential Billings connection). A closer relationship than Joseph Billings and Lydia Hobson is unlikely based on the two trees.
