Research Notes
- Possible brother and grandfather, "Tithe List 1749 same county, shows MOSES BRUMFIELD listed in or with the household of Captain John Watson, (Jr.) who perhaps was his grandfather. Prior to 1746, neither the Brumfields nor the Watsons appear on the Tithe Lists for Goochland County. Moses Brumfield continues to appear on the Tithe Lists with Captain John Watson's household thru 1749. We had long considered Moses Brumfield to be our ancestor,but now feel that he and our ancestor (John) Watson Brumfield were brothers, perhaps grandsons of Captain John Watson, Jr. Moses's will, dated 8-29-1758, shows his son Watson to be very young, too young to be the same (John) Watson Brumfield, father of our Revolutionary War ancestor, Charles Brumfield."

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

Hey Dorothy,
One of the Brumfield Profile managers is going to be at a conference over the weekend where her will see quite a few of our distant Brumfield cousins. He will be sharing WikiTree with them, so I am doing a little work to make some of our profiles a little easier to read.
