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

  1. While his birth record had 25 Jul 1702, he had a sibling born Feb 1702/3. His birth date must have been in error.

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.
