DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Miles 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 Miles:
MacDonald-15280 and MacDonald-8833 appear to represent the same person because: These are the same person. One does not have link to parents, one does. I updated some biography and sources on the leaner profile. These should be combined.
Craft MacDonald-1 and MacDonald-8833 appear to represent the same person because: Same birth info; same father; same wife ... is "Craft" a middle name??
