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

Seeking some clarity about his date of death.

Profile data reports his death 22 Apr 1723 in Yarmouth, Barnstable, Massachusetts Bay. Narrative reports he died before his will (dated 22 Jul 1722) was proved, 27 Nov 1728,

Father's profile, Yelverton Crowell reports Thomas died 22 April 1722. (Based on the comment that his will was dated still later, I plan to update the entry on his father's profile to 22 April 1723, but is there a source for that date.)

Thank you in advance.--Gene
