Previous Y-DNA testing
Previous Y-STR testing through the Mayflower Society[1] and the Pilgrim Henry Samson Kindred society[2] has identified a Y-STR haplotype for the Mayflower Samson lineage, which likely belongs to the I-M223 Y-DNA haplogroup. Nevgen.org further refines this prediction to fall under I2a2a M223>Z161>L801> CTS1977>> BY526 Y Elite test results will be able to confirm this and place the Samson lineage more precisely within the broader I-M223 clade.

- Find A Grave memorial for Henry Samson NOTE: Henry (and wife Ann) were NOT buried at Coles Hill in Plymouth. This hill is believed to have been used only during the winter of 1620/1 (and possibly a bit later). Henry and his wife died at Duxbury and almost certainly buried there.
