Status summary
Completed as of May 6, 2021:
- Recruiting additional matrilineal (direct female-line) Hester Dewsbury descendants for mtDNA testing - anyone interested in submitting their DNA for testing should contact Raymond T. Wing (email: wing.genealogist AT gmail DOT com)
Still to do as of February 28, 2021
- Full mtDNA testing multiple matrilineal Hester Dewsbury descendants to firmly place family clade as well as discover any subclades unique to descendants lines
Biography
First Generation
Hester/Esther Dewsbury's origins are unknown. She was married Plymouth 19 Dec 1634 to Phillip Delano and they had six children: Mary (c1635), Phillip (c1637), Thomas (c1639), Esther (c1641), John (c1644) and Jonathan (c1648)
