There is likewise nothing in the DNA reports that indicate that John Coats m Ann Dunnigan and James Roberts Coats are brothers or 1st cousins, they are merely related at this point, so please don't make any indication of that either! You need to be careful making your assumptions with this group...they can be misleading and prevent others from doing further research... All we know is: they are related however, we don't know how at this point... Char On Tue, Jul 29, 2008 at 1:23 PM, Linda Coate <lcoate@ancestrees.com> wrote: > I have the new DNA results up.

James appears from this latest test to be more closely related to William than John R.... The secondary info at Ancestry has not been confirmed with any primary source records from the New England area records....New England by the way has very good records, so there is no need to rely on secondary info at Ancestry...so that connection with Charles Coats and Thankful, I was not able to find any records to make any connection there...that does not mean something may not show up..but at this time we have no records showing any connection...and unless Ancestry provides source info it's probably not reliable... Very little research has been done in that New England area by the way on any Coats families, that includes New York and the Maine, New Hampshire areas as well...so other than the documentation found at the New England Genealogical and Historical Society, together with the early town records are the only ones we have... So needless to say, much more research needs to be done in those areas, which may give us more clues on how these families might be connected...
