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:
Morrison-11888 and Morrison-8485 appear to represent the same person because: It looks like I created this record a couple of years ago for Thomas Morrison, the father of Sarah Frances Morrison. But I somehow failed to actually connect him to Sarah. I'd like to get the two Thomas Morrison records merged, so I don't have this unconnected profile.
The birth date on Morrison-11888 is correct. Mine was only a rough estimate based on Sarah's age.
