YDNA

Sullivan County Cowans
A person tracing descent to Jermiah Cowan (1) has taken the FTDNA YDNA test at 37 markers (kit 134467). YDNA dissimilarity comparisons show that this kitmatches kits 162433, 83808, 238865 and 107609, at 4.2% to 6.7% dissimilarity in 12 marker tests. These kits have been assigned to the Sullivan County Cowan YDNA Group based on YDNA dissimilarity analysis. While dissimilarity estimates suggest a relatively recent common ancestor, the comparisons can be made for these kits only at the 12 marker level, and these results are not considered to be definitive. Other kits in the Sullivan County group that tested at 37 markers or more do not match well with the kit for Jeremiah Cowan, with dissimilarity values exceeding 20%. While current data suggests that the best fit for kit 134467 is with the Sullivan County Group, this match is not considered definitive.
