Hi All, I am on Ray's computer. Mine is Sick, sick, sick but grandson is trying to
heal it. <smile>. Just thought i'ld talk about our DNA results since it has been
awhile. Also I forgot to add James and Robert, sons of James and Isabel to my wish list
and while I am wishing, might as well wish for results from all of the younger James
sons.
Now have results from William and his brother John and Also Hiram -- which all match on 37
markers. Need to think about upgrading these three to 67 markers to see if just possibly
there is any distinction between William and John and how Hiram compares. Really need
lines from Robert and James to be the most accurate. We know now that Hiram descends from
a male Callison -- possibly illigitimate but the Callison was the male.
We know now that James who married Isabel and the thrice married James -- truly were
related with a common ancestor -- possibly uncle and nephew
We have two lines from Moses but cannot comfirm 100 % that Moses is the son of William via
DNA testing. The line from his son Ezekial has one mutation that is different from the
line from his son, James. That mutation may have happened with Ezekial or at any time
between Ezekial and the person who was tested. Need other lines from Ezekial to know more
about that. However, both lines from Moses have reverse markers on two numbers than the
rest of us so it is possible that this mutation happened WITH Moses since both lines carry
this change.
It is reasonable to look at the DNA from lines of William, John and Hiram and know that
this was the DNA results from our common Callison ancestor since these represent the
majority of the results.
Now we have 3 results from different sons of the thrice married James. Kirk only has 12
markers back so we can't tell much yet. He matches 12 out of 12 with us but so do alot
of other people with our common haplogroup. The three sons are Isaac, James and Elisha ( I
think this is right without access to my computer). Neither of the two lines that have 37
markers have the same mutations so it will interesting to get Kirks results to see if
there is any comparison with the other two.
Right now the line from James has his mutation on marker 21 and the line from Isaac has
mutations on #35 and # 23 so apparently mutated sometime after James UNLESS Kirk matches
with either of them. Isn't this fun.
Take care. Marilyn
