Status summary

Completed as of February 28, 2021:

  • Recruiting additional direct male-line Christopher Webb 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 February 28, 2021

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

Biography

First Generation

Christopher Webb (II) was baptized at Crediton, Devonshire, England 28 Mar 1630, son of Christopher Webb & Humilty Wheaton, and died Braintree, MA 30 May 1694. The family emigrated to New England sometime between 1639[1] and 1644.<First recorded in May 1645 as a Freeman. Too early to have emigrated in 1645.</ref> The son Christopher married 18 Jan 1654/5 Braintree Hannahh Scott and they had nine children (born Braintree) including Peter and Christopher.

  1. son Thomas bur. 6 Feb 1638/9 at Crediton.
  2. After Christopher's death, Mary married Braintree 13 Apr 1694 William Copeland.

DNA results R1b-L21

Previous Y-DNA testing

The Webb Surname DNA Project Group: Christopher Webb (grandfather of Peter & Christopher) currently lists seven close STR matches, all claiming Christopher as their most distant known patrilineal (all male line) ancestor (MDKPA). None of them have done any Y-SNP tested and all are predicted (by FTDNA) to fall under R1b-M269. Two of the individuals have done Y-67 STR testing. Plugging in the STR values into the Nevgen Haplogroup prediction tool gives a very low prediction of the family falling somewhere under R1b-L21. Other subclades of R1b-P312 are also predicted with extremely low probability. The tool predicted a 75% chance of the result falling under an "unsupported clade."[1]

Further needed testing

We need direct male-line Webb descendants to WGS/NGS test to confirm and further refine the haplogroup placement.

  1. In addition, a fairly close STR match to this family has taken the Big Y-700 test and been found to fall under R-L21>S552>DF13>ZZ10_1>Z253>Z2534>ZZ5_1>A16>BY10>FGC53827 so it is quite likely the Webb family falls somewhere in this line of successive clades.
