DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Edward 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 Edward:
Packer-1087 and Packer-769 appear to represent the same person because: While going through DNA lists I found Albert Packer duplicate profiles, Packer-1335 and Packer-770. In compare of the two, I see I have gone onto both before and never noticed there was two. They have the same father and syblings. Of the syblings, Edward has two duplicate profles, Packer-1087 and Packer-769. Merge is requested for the duplicate profiles.
Packer-1793 and Packer-1087 appear to represent the same person because: Several Packer family member profiles have been duplicated, and merges are being requested. Michael and I (Kester-460) are first cousins, and Jessica Sambrailo (who had first created several of the Packer family profiles) is our first cousin once removed.
