Two patrilineal (all male) descendants of Myles Standish have taken the Big Y-700 test. These two members descend from the two sons of Myles who left descendants (Alexander & Josiah) and since they match each other, we are confident this is the Haplogroup of Myles Standish. In addition, other Standish's have done DNA testing, with some of them belonging to the R Haplogroup (so are not related to Myles Standish) while others document a close relationship to Myles Standish (falling into clades immediately above the Myles FT276288 clade). The Myles Standish family results fall under: I-M170>P215>CTS2257>L460>P214>S2525>S2519>S2497>L38>S2606>FGC29656>BY1183>Y18919>S4556>BY14000>FT277048>FT276288

First Generation

(Capt.) Miles Standish was born about 1587,[1] possibly at the Isle of Man.[2] He died at Duxburrow (now Duxbury) 3 Oct 1656.[3] He was married twice, his first wife Rose travelled with him on the Mayflower, but she died in the first sickness 29 Jan 1620/1 without having any children. Capt. Standish married New Plimouth by 1624 to Barbara _____.

Miles Standish and (second wife) Barbara had seven children; one daughter (Lora, who apparently never married) and six sons (Charles [died young], Alexander, John [died young], Myles, Josiah and Charles [prob. never married])

Second Generation

Alexander Standish was born about 1626 and died 6 Jul 1702 "being about 76 years of age"[4] He married twice, first abt 1660 to Sarah Alden (daughter of Mayflower passenger John Alden). After her death, he married by 1689 to Desire DOTY (Sherman)(Holmes) (her third husband, she was daughter of Mayflower passenger Edward Doty). By his first wife, Alexander had eight children: Lora(h), Lydia, Elizabeth, Mercy, Myles, Sarah, Ebenezer & David (died young). By his second wife he had three children: Desire, Thomas & Ichabod.

Josiah (Josias) Standish was born at Plymouth about 1633. He married twice, first at Marshfield 19 Dec 1654 Mary Dingley.[5] She died 1 Jul 1655, without having any children. He remarried before Aug 1669 to Sarah Allen.[6] By his second wife, Josiah had eight children: Mary, Martha, Myles, Josiah, Samuel, Israel, Lois and Mercy.

DNA Results FT276288

Previous Y-DNA testing

Previous Y-STR testing through the Mayflower Societyand the Standish surname DNA project has suggested that the Standish lineage belongs to Y-DNA haplogroup I (defined by the marker M170, among others); further, one Standish kit has been further classified as I-L38 based on Y-STR results.

NGS/WGS Results

Two patrilineal (all male) descendants of Myles Standish have taken the Big Y-700 test. These two members descend from the two sons of Myles who left descendants (Alexander & Josiah) and since they match each other, we are confident this is the Haplogroup of Myles Standish. In addition, other Standish's have done DNA testing, with some of them belonging to the R Haplogroup (so are not related to Myles Standish) while others document a close relationship to Myles Standish (falling into clades immediately above the Myles FT276288 clade). The Myles Standish family results fall under: I-M170>P215>CTS2257>L460>P214>S2525>S2519>S2497>L38>S2606>FGC29656>BY1183>Y18919>S4556>BY14000>FT277048>FT276288
