I was 35/37 of a tester who speculates he a James the weaver heir. One other tester is close to us and he is 35/37 compared to me, and he has a brick wall 5 generations back. Another James the weaver tester has just upgraded to 37 markers because we were 23/25. Another verified heir has just ordered tests this week. Four Samuel heirs have tested and they average about 23/37 compared to me. We just got the results of our first Joseph the tanner guy and he is real close to the Samuels thus not to the James the weavers. So only 3 of the 7 "brothers" have thus far been tested. Now all of this is not a portion of the Alexander DNA Project, of which there are about 50 current members who are simply all Alexander surname testers who opt to have their results posted at the site. Rather this 7 brothers effort is an informal email group of about 35 who descend just from the 7 2. And it is for this group that I started this thread, not for the Alexander DNA Project which I happen to co-administrate. If you would like to email me, roger.alexander@fkilogistex.com. I hopes this helps to answer you. I am sorry to have confused anyone. Please reply and I will try to clarify.
