Hi Kathleen
Have just come across your posting. Do you have any info on a marriage between a Miss Coddington and Francis L'Estrange of Moystown Kings Co (co Offaly) in early 1700s?
Cheers
Rod

Oakland, Swanton, Mc Henry, Lavale, Cumberland, Accident, Frostburg, and possibly Sharpsburg, MD all seem like worthwhile possibilities. Send them a letter!

Kris, I administer this board, and I'm pretty sure that no descendants of John Calvin C. other than yourself are subscribed. For questions like this I find the combination of Google Earth and Superpages.com useful. You might, for example, have a 1st cousins three times removed living in Friendsville itself.

New Y chromosome DNA results are back for a descendant of Samuel Corrington, son of Joseph Coddington 1763, (Rev. War soldier and one of the first settlers of Warren Co., Ohio). His 43 marker haplotype is identical to that of the 6 other known descendants of Stockdale Coddington tested thus far.
So the trend continues. Stockdale's sluggish Y chromosome passed up yet another opportunity to mutate. To recap, these 7 identical haplotypes are about equally distant from each other, none closer than 6-7th cousins.
This result is important, however, because Joseph 1763's parents are unknown, although I think the most plausible theory is as a son of Christopher 1731. Read about Joseph at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~coddingtons/63.htm. Joseph's children all changed the spelling of Coddington to Corrington, and have spelled it that way ever since. Stephen Coddington's http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~coddingtons/8430.htm children also switched the spelling to Corrington after Stephen's move to Kentucky ca. 1794. To make matters more confusing, these two lines of Corringtons later intermarried when some of the Kentucky Corringtons moved to Ohio. However, there is no indications that the families knew they were related.
Although there was never much doubt that Joseph 1763 was, in fact, a Stockdale descendant (due to lack of other possiblities), the DNA evidence now proves the link conclusively.
