DNA

MorrowDNA - Group 4 (NC) ~ Tested Line ~ Early Ancestor: John Morrow d. 1835 Indianapolis (this man)
Loose matches to rest of Group 4 - More tests needed
Tested grandsons match: Milton b. 1824 and Thomas Allen b. 1830 (info)


Lines through two grandsons (sons of Thomas) have been tested and match, but more markers and more tests would help assess connections to other lines with Group 4, in particular whether John's father is the Alexander Murray whose estate was resolved in Cumberland County, PA in 1791.
