Joseph Chandler was born Scituate about 1690. He married twice, first Duxbury 8 Sep 1720 Elizabeth Delano and second 1729 Deborah Bonney. By his first wife he had two children (Duxbury): John (1722) and Simeon (1724/5). By his second wife he had seven more children: Joseph, Abner, Betty, Jonathan, Rebecca, Deborah and Sarah.

Edmund Chandler was born Duxburrow (now Duxbury) about 1670 and died there before 28 Sep 1717. He married Duxbury bef. 1698 Elizabeth Alden. There is some debate about whether they had any children.

  2. Joseph's will names a grandson John Chandler, but which of Joseph's sons was his father is currently unknown.

DNA Results R1b-FGC48713

Previous testing

FTDNA's Chandler DNA Project[1] subgrouping: Group 013 has a number of folks who claim Edmund Chandler as their Most Distant Known Patrilineal Ancestor (MDKPA) and are also close Y-STR matches. Two of these individuals have SNP tested to: R1b-U106>>U198>DF93>DF94>FGC48723>FGC48713

NGS/WGS testing

NGS/WGS testing is needed to confirm the prediction (above) as well as potentially further refine the haplogroup.
