Status summary

Completed as of April 15, 2021:

  • Recruiting direct male-line descendants of Joseph Waterman for SNP testing - anyone interested in submitting their DNA for testing should contact MayflowerDNA1620@gmail.com

Still to do as of April 15, 2021

  • NGS/WGS test multiple descendants of Robert Waterman (and preferably of his son Joseph) to place the family clade as well as test descendants to discover any subclades unique to descendants lines

  1. There is no contemporary record proving this marriage, but it was accepted by D.L. Jacobus in his Waterman Genealogy (I:28) as well as by George Bowman in Mayflower Descendant 24:145.

DNA results R1b-U106>>Z381>>L48

Previous Y-DNA testing

The Waterman Y-DNA Project Group: To sort (a) - Waterman has one individual claiming Robert Waterman (father of Joseph) as their Most Distant Known Paternal Ancestor (MDKPA). He has Y-SNP tested down to R1b-U106>>Z381>>L48. He has also tested 67 Y-STRs. Plugging in his STR values into the NevGen Haplogroup Prediction tool does not help in predicting a haplogroup/clade.

Further needed testing

We need additional direct male-line descendants of Robert Waterman (and preferably of his son Joseph) to WGS/NGS test to confirm the haplogroup/clade for the family as well as possibly identify subclade branches of descendant lines.
