Status summary
Completed as of October 1, 2020:
- Recruiting patrilineal (all male-line) Francis West descendants for NGS/WGS testing. Any male who believes he qualifies should Read me First
IMPORTANT: Read me First
Still to do as of October 1, 2020
- NGS/WGS test multiple descendants of Francis West to firmly place family clade as well as test descendants to discover any subclades unique to descendants lines
Biography
NOTE: There was a contemporary Francis West (c1605-1692) who lived in Duxbury, Mass. The relationship between the two Francis's is currently unknown.
First Generation
[1]Francis West was born about 1633, presumably in England[1] and died North Kingstown, RI aft 6 Sep 1687. The date and circumstances of his emigration to New England is currently unknown. Francis married Plymouth abt 1661 Susanna Soule and they had nine children: Francis (c1662), Richard (c1664), Peter (c1666), John (c1669), Susannah (1673), Martha (c1677), William (1681), Thomas (twin, 1684) and Clement (twin, 1684).
Second Generation
[2]Francis West (II) was born Plymouth abt 1662 and died North Kingstown, RI abt 1724. He married abt 1698 Sarah Downing and they had seven children (Kingston, now South Kingstown, RI): Susanna (c1699), Sarah (1700), Peter (c1702 m Sarah Baker), John (c1704 m Alice Sweet), Francis (c1706 m Mary ?Sheldon), Thomas (c1708 unk. if marr.) and Mary (1711).
[3]Richard West was born Plymouth abt 1664 and died Middleborough abt 1726. He married twice, first Plymouth 26 Oct 1693 Mary Samson and second Plymouth 21 Oct 1706 Elizabeth Cannedy. By his first wife Richard had four children (Taunton): Richard (c1694 m Patience Gardiner), Susannah (c1700), Thomas (1702 m Mary Jenny) and Mary (c1704). By his second wife Richard had four more children (Taunton): Elizabeth (c1708), Charles (c1710 m Deborah Williamson), Charity (c1713) and Sarah (1715).
William West was born Kingston (now North Kingstown), RI 31 May 1681 and died West Greenwich, RI bef 1751. He married twice, first abt 1707 Abiah Sprague and second abt 1722 Jane Tanner. By his first wife William had five children: Deborah (c1708), William (c1710 unk. if marr.), John (1715 m Elizabeth Mann & Ann ____), Abiah (dau c1718) and infant (c1720). By his second wife William had nine more children: infant (c1723), Joseph (c1724 m Martha Barber), Jane (c1726), Susanna (c1728), Benjamin (c1730 m Elizabeth Smith), Thomas (c1732 m Elizabeth Gladding, Amey Colgrove & Lydia ___), Francis (1735 m Mary Lawton), Hezekiah (c1737 unk. if marr.) and Ebenezer (c1739 m Waite Carr).
[4]Thomas West was born Kingston (now North Kingstown), RI 18 Sep 1684 and died Exeter, RI bef 10 Jul 1744. He married abt 1716 Dorcas Rathbun and they had three children: Ichabod (1717 m Rebecca Holt), Thomas (1720 m Delight ____) and Martha (c1722).
[5]Clement West was born Kingston (now North Kingstown), RI 18 Sep 1684 and died there aft 14 Apr 1747. He married Kingston (now South Kingstown), RI abt 1725 Sarah Tanner and they had nine children: Mary (1726), Richard (1728 m Mary Macomber), Clement (1731/2 m Sarah Irish), Susannah (1733), John (1736 unk. if marr.), Elizabeth (1738), Thomas (1740 m Sarah Tanner), Eliza (1742) and Sarah (1745).
- ↑ DNA testing West Surname DNA Project has conclusively proven where Francis West (husband of Susanna Soule) could not have been son of Francis West and Margery Reeves. In addition, one descendant of Matthew West b. 1598 has done Y-DNA testing and falls under a completely different haplogroup. Thus it is highly unlikely Francis was a son of Matthew.
DNA results R1b-U106
Previous Y-DNA testing
The West Surname DNA Project Subgroup: "R Haplogroup" includes multiple clusters of individuals (due to mutations in the first 12 markers), claiming their Most Distant Known Patrilineal Ancestor (MDKPA) was Francis West (married Susanna Soule). One of these individuals has apparently taken the FamilyFinder test and has been found to be positive for R1b-U106.
Further Y-DNA testing
A comprehensive study of the different clusters of individuals, along with what they know of their lineage is needed in order to identify descendant lines. T
Further needed testing
We need additional direct male-line descendants of Francis West to WGS/NGS test to both confirm this prediction as well as to refine the haplogroup further and delineate descendant clades.
