DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Richard 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 Richard:
Henderson-12060 and Henderson-10051 are not ready to be merged because: There is some doubt that Henderson-12060 is on the correct line, but if that can be validated then the merge should occur.
Are you sure you are on the right Henderson line? Richard Henderson, wife Rachel Thornton, was a son of Richard the Quaker, from Hanover. Check in Quaker Records.
