DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with William by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
There is convincing circumstantial evidence that William Henson is NOT the father of the William Henson of this profile, but that his brother Joseph (Hinson-1762) is. More research is needed but until then the parents of this profile need to be marked uncertain.
Henson-121 and Henson-108 appear to represent the same person because: Born in same year to same father, died same time same place. Wondering if the 3rd "william" brother should be merged as well.
