Status summary
Still to do of January 1, 2023:
- Recruit patrilineal descendants of John Stevens (preferably through grandson Samuel) to Y-DNA test and publish their results. Such descendants are encouraged to contact MayflowerDNA1620@gmail.com

DNA results Q-YP4004
The Stephens-Stevens DNA Project Group: Q-M242 has one individual claiming John Stevens (grandfather of Samuel) as their Most Distant Known Patrilineal Ancestor (MDKPA). They have done no SNP testing, but have 67 Y-STR tested. FTDNA predicts they fall under Q-L53. Plugging the STR results into the NevGen Haplogroup Predictor arrives at Q M346>YP4004 with 91.79% probability. This clade is common in the Native American population, but very rare in Eurasia. As such, it is likely this Y-DNA haplogroup does not actually belong to the Stevens family, but is a Non-Paternal event.
Further DNA testing needed
Testing of additional patrilineal descendants is needed. Any male who believes their patrilineal ancestry goes through John Stevens (and preferably through his son Samuel) is encouraged to contact MayflowerDNA1620@gmail.com
