Status summary
Completed as of March 24, 2021:
- Recruiting additional direct male-line John Tha(t)cher 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)
Still to do as of March 24, 2021
- NGS/WGS test multiple Tha(t)cher descendants to firmly place family clade as well as discover any subclades unique to descendants lines
Biography
First Generation
(Col.) John Thacher was born in that part of Salem which later became Marblehead 17 Mar 1638/9, son of (Rev.) Anthony Thacher & Elizabeth Jones. He died Yarmouth 8 May 1713. John married twice, first Yarmouth 6 Nov 1661 Rebecca Winslow (NOT descended from a Mayflower passenger) and second Yarmouth 1 Jan 1683/4 Lydia Gorham. By his second wife, John had twelve children (born Yarmouth): Lydia (1684/5), Mary (1686/7), Desire (1688), Hannah (1690), Mercy (1692-1692), Judah (son, 1693), Mercy (1695-1696), Ann (1697), Joseph (1699), Benjamin (1701), Mercy (1702/3) and Thomas (1705)
Second Generation
DNA Results TBD
Previous testing
The Thatcher DNA Project currently does not list the Most Distant Known Paternal Ancestor (MDKPA) of project members, so it cannot be determined whether any of the individuals descend from Col. John Tha(t)cher.
NGS/WGS testing
NGS/WGS testing of Tha(t)cher Y-DNA descendants would identify the haplogroup for the family and possibly define subclades for descendants.
