DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Anthony 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 Anthony:
There is a 63-page file in Fold3 recording Anthony's declaration and subsequent witnessing and legal registration of the pension. There is also a record of the legal process through which his wife Elizabeth was able to claim the pension after he died. It includes his birth date, his date of enlistment and discharge, and place of residence at the time of application.
