Jonathan Bunker was born in 1736 in Charlestown, MA. He died at Bunker Hill, Charlestown, MA. He had a son named John b. in 1759 who served in the Revolutionary War. There are many descendants from this family and the wife of one just recently passed away (Bertha Younger Bunker, wife of William Bunker, Hays, Kansas). It would be really interesting to get a DNA test on one of the Bunker male descendants in this line. This is one of those lines we have been trying to figure out for years. Recently, we have solved several mysteries through the use of DNA testing. We learned that the Devon and Bedfordshire Bunkers are not related. James of Dover, NH, is Devon branch and the two George's are Bedfordshire branches. We learned that our President, Gil Bunker is a Bedfordshire Bunker. We learned that our prior genealogist Henry Bunker was a Devon Bunker. We know that the Modbury branch, which descends from Rattery, Devon, is related to James of Dover, NH. We learned that the descendants of Benjamin and Betsey Daniels Bunker of New London, NH (including our Puerto Rican Bunkers) are Devon Bunkers and probably, as suspected, descendants of James of Dover. We are still trying to figure out the Andrew Melville Bunker, of PA group. And this group that descends from Jonathan is also another mystery. If you are a male Bunker and would like to join our DNA project, go to the website at http://www.bunkerfamilyassn.org and click on the links to the DNA surname project. Signing up through our website gets you a considerable discount on the cost of the test. If you have any questions about the test, please contact me and I will try to answer them. We are looking for Charlestown descendants to be tested and will pay for the test for the first Charlestown descendant who signs up for the test.
