Status summary

Completed as of March 24, 2021:

  • Recruiting patrilineal (all male-line) Daniel Cole descendants for NGS/WGS SNP testing. Any male who believes they are such a descendant should Read me First

IMPORTANT: Read me First

Still to do as of March 24, 2021

  • NGS/WGS test multiple Daniel Cole (and hopefully through son John) descendants to firmly place family clade as well as discover any subclades unique to descendants lines

DNA Results I-A16747

Previous testing

The Cole (etc) DNA Project Group: I - M253 - Family Group 1 has four individuals with a Most Distant Known Paternal Ancestor (MDKPA) being Daniel Cole. Two of these individuals have done some Y-SNP testing and fall under Haplogroup: I1-DF29>Z58>Z139>S2293>Z2541>S19185>S23519>S20030>BY1482>A7000>A11161>A16748>FGC54631>A16747

NGS/WGS testing

NGS/WGS testing of known John Cole Y-DNA descendants would sollidify the haplogroup for the family and possibly define subclades for descendants.
