Revision as of 14:26, 6 April 2021

Status summary

Completed as of October 8, 2020:

  • Recruiting additional direct male-line Solomon Leonard descendants for NGS/WGS SNP testing - anyone interested in submitting their DNA for testing should contact Raymond T. Wing (email: wing.genealogist AT gmail DOT com)
  • Y-SNP tested to I-S18331.

Still to do as of October 8, 2020

  • NGS/WGS test multiple descendants of Solomon Leonard to firmly place family clade as well as test descendants to discover any subclades unique to descendants lines

Biography

First Generation

Solomon Leonard was born about 1610, likely in Monmouthshire, England. He was said to be a son of Samuel Leonard, as both individuals were later found in Leiden, Holland. It is said that Solomon (and possibly his father) emigrated from Leiden to Plymouth Colony in either 1629 or 1630 (when many of the Separatist Congregation at Leiden came over), but the family is not treated in Robert Charles Anderson's The Great Migration Begins series.

Solomon was the first individual with the Leonard surname to emigrate to New England and he has been called the ancestor of the "Bridgewater Branch" of the Leonard family. Solomon married Sarah Chandler about 1640, likely in Duxburrow (now Duxbury). They had six children (born Duxbury): Samuel (c1643), John (c1645), Jacob (c1647), Isaac (c1650), Solomon (p1650) and Mary.

Second Generation

Samuel Leonard was born Duxbury abt 1643 and died Preston, CT aft 30 Nov 1720. He married twice, first bef 7 Mar 1675/6 Abigail Wood and second, Deborah ____. By his first wife Samuel had four children: Mercy, Elizabeth, Samuel (c1683) and Mary. By his second wife he had Phebe (bp Preston 7 Oct 1703).

John Leonard was born Duxbury abt 1645 and died Bridgewater ber 21 Nov 1699 (inv. of his estate). He married abt 1670 Sarah ____ and they had six children (prob. born Bridgewater), John (never marr.), Enoch, Moses (c1677), Josiah, Joseph (c1672) and Sarah (b1681)

Jacob Leonard was born Duxbury abt 1647 and died Bridgewater in 1717. He married abt 1680 Susanna King and they had seven children: Abigail (1680), Susanna (1683), Experience, Mary, Solomon (c1693), Sarah (1699) and Jacob (1702-1722 unm.)

Isaac Leonard was born Duxbury abt 1650 and died Bridgewater bef 1719/20. He married abt 1675 Deliverance _____ and they had five children (prob. born Bridgewater): Isaac, Hannah (1679/80), Deliverance, Joseph and Benjamin (c1688).

Solomon Leonard (II) was born Duxbury aft 1650 and died Bridgewater 14 May 1686. He married Mary and they had one child: Martha (c1685 Bridgewater).

DNA results I-S18331

Previous Y-DNA testing

The Leonard Y-Chromosome DNA Surname Project Subgrouping: "I - Solomon Leonard Descendants" has fourindividuals, all STR matches to each other. One of these individuals has apparently done a FTDNA Big Y test and has been determined to fall under: I-M223>P222>CTS616>FGC15071>BY1003>S18331

Further needed testing

We need additional direct male-line descendants of Solomon to WGS/NGS test to both to refine the haplogroup further and delineate descendant clades.
