Biography
It appears the Y-DNA line from Thomas Oldham (III) died out in the fourth generation, with no Y-DNA males in the fifth generation. However, there are gaps in some of the family records, so future discoveries may uncover a survivng Y-DNA line. In addition, it is likely there are living Y-DNA descendants of William Oldham, the paternal great-grandfather of Thomas Oldham (III), so the Y-DNA of this family may possibly be uncovered in the future.
First Generation
Thomas Oldham (III) was born Scituate 30 Oct 1660, son of Thomas Oldham (II) and Mary Witherell, and died likely at Scituate bet. 21 Feb 1733 (will) - 24 Jan 1734 (presented).

Joshua only had one child by his first wife, a daughter Mehitable bp. 1717 so no surviving Y-DNA descendants.
Thomas Oldham (IV) was born Scituate 30 Jan 1698/9 and died there 23 Jul 1735. He married Marshfield 8 May 1727 Desire Wormall and they had two children: Thomas (c1730) and Patience (c1735).
