Status summary

As of November 21, 2020:

  • Low Priority as no known Y-DNA descendants of Isaac Allerton. Research is still needed in England to determine if paternal line has any descendants.

Paper trail

First Generation

Isaac Allerton was born about 1587, son of Bartolomew and Mary (_____) Allerton of East Bergholt, Suffolk, England.[1] He died at New Haven (now part of Connecticut) between 1 Feb 1658/9 - 12 Feb 1658/9.[2] He was married twice: First at Leiden 4 Nov 1611 [NS] to Mary Norris[3] who died at Plymouth on 25 Feb 1620/1.[4] Isaac married second, New Plimouth between 1623 - 1627 Fear Brewster.[5]

By his first wife, Isaac had: Bartholomew, Remember, Mary, infant child, and stillborn son. By his second wife, Isaac had Sarah (apparently died young) and Isaac.[6]

Second Generation

Bartholomew Allerton[7] was born in Leiden about 1612.[8] and died in Barnfield, Suffolk, England between 15 Oct 1658 - 19 Feb 1658/9.[9] He is believed to have married twice: fist by 1640 to Margaret (____) who pre-deceased him, and second between Sarah Fairfax.[10] Isaac had four children[11]: Isaac, Mary, Dorothy and John.[12]

Isaac Allerton (II) was born in New Plimouth about 1628[13] and died sometime between writing his will (Westmoreland Co., VA 25 Oct 1702) and the will being proved (30 Dec 1702). Isaac was married twice: First prob. in New Haven, CT about 1652 to Elizabeth (_____) and second, in Virginia between 8 Sep 1662 - 30 Jan 1663/4 to Elizabeth Willoughby, widow of both Simon Overzee and George Colclough. By his first wife he had Elizabeth and Isaac. By his second wife he had Willoughby, Frances and Sarah.

Possible Y-DNA descendants

An Isaac Allerton with wife Elizabeth was living in the New Haven, Connecticut area in the latter part of the Seventeenth Century. They had sons John and Jesse. The identity of this Isaac is still unknown, but is likely either Isaac3 son of Isaac2 or Isaac3 son of Bartholomew2.

DNA Results TBD

Previous testing

Currently, Family Tree DNA does not have an Allerton surname DNA Project, but has eight kits associated with the Allerton surname.

Next Generation Sequence/Whole Genome Sequence testing

NGS/WGS testing of Allerton descendants would further refine the haplogroup assignment for this family.
