Dear Bill.......... Would you be kind enough to confirm the following as a viable plan: Isaac Davenport was born in NJ in 1693. He "disappeared" in about 1725. An Isaac Davenport turned up in NC approximately ten years later, and died there in 1749. His descendants went on to become "Newberry Davenports" If we did a 25 marker test on a male Newberry descendant, and a 25 marker test on a male descendant of one of NJ Isaac's brothers, and got a match, wouldn't we have concrete proof that the two Isaacs were one and the same man? Thanks, Bob Brooke PS: Please respond, including this e-mail. Then I can forward both in one swoop to several interested cousins. Thx.

Not exactly. It would prove that the NC Isaac and the NJ Isaac were either the same man or had the same male progenitor. -----Original Message----- From: Robert D.Brooke [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2003 12:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [DAVENPORT] A DNA Testing Plan Dear Bill..........
