Summary of findings
It would appear that there are no known direct patrilineal descendants of Degory Priest, since his two known children (Mary and Sarah) were both female.
Still, there remains the opportunity for characterizing his Y-DNA through descendants of other paternal relatives. Even so, such a link would likely be tenuous since it would seem that the identity of Degory Priest's relatives in England carries some uncertainty.
To do
- Additional paper-trail research might allow additional Y-DNA testing candidates to be identified
