Holden): Reuben (bp1770), Hepzibah (bp1772), Hannah (bp1777), Nathaniel, ____, Rebecca (1784) and Grace Sears (1787).

1. ↑ See Wikitree profile which discusses how difficult it is to trace the descendants of Reuben as well as other individuals claimed (but unlikely) to be children of Reuben.

DNA Results R1b-M269

Previous testing

As of December 29, 2022, Family Tree DNA does not have a Paddock surname DNA Project, but does have 39 kits associated with this surname. WikiTree profile for Jim Beers claims he is a patrilineal descendant of Zachariah Paddock (father of Capt. Judah). Jim states he has taken a Y-DNA 67 marker STR test at Family Tree DNA and FTDNA predicts he falls under R1b-M269.^[1]

Additional testing needed

Additional testing is needed to verify and refine the haplogroup of the Paddock family.

1. ↑ As of 20 Oct 2020 Family Tree DNA does not have a Paddock (etc.) surname DNA Project, but has 37 kits associated with the Paddock (exact spelling) surname.
