We now have test results from descendants of three sons of Charles CARRICO (1770s-1830s)
of Sullivan Co., IN, namely: Reason, Basil, and Josiah. Therefore, my offer to fund DNA
tests for Charles's descendants is cancelled.
Of the three tested sons, the descendants of Basil and Josiah are a tight match with other
descendants of Peter CARRICO I, the 1674 immigrant to Maryland. It appears only the
descendant of Reason CARRICO has an NPE, a "non-paternal event" (i.e., hidden
adoption or illicit paternity) in his patrilineal line.
We do not yet know where in his patrilineal line the NPE took place. If you are a
descendant of Reason CARRICO (1790s-1878) of Sullivan Co., IN, you have a stake in finding
out where in this individual's line the NPE occurred. So, if you are a male surnamed
CARRICO descended from Reason on a patrilineal (direct male) line, please get Y-DNA
tested, to 1) find out whether you have the NPE and 2) to help determine where this NPE
occurred.

If you have any further questions about testing, I'll be happy to answer them
privately.
