Henry, First of all, I want to urge you to get the DNA test. PLEASE. I doubt you are connected to the Jamestown Hancocks, but the DNA test will be the only way to know.  I have been digging through mounds of old research tonight trying to figure out where I have seen the genealogy for Henry Grady Hancock III. Julia assures me it has never been on the Hancock DNA chart. I finally figured it out. In 2005 and 2006, Bill Felknor (spelled "nor" as opposed to "ner") shared a lot of material with me. I know you were once in touch with Bill. If you don't have the entire genealogy record dating back to Robert b. 1711 in VA, I do and will be happy to share it with you. You will need to send me your address offline so I can mail everything to you. There's a lot of paperwork. Bill Felknor only has documentation going back to Robert b. 1711 in VA. He speculates that your line goes all the way back to William, born about 1580 in England, but your DNA will be the only proof of that speculation. I even think there's reason to believe your line may be kin to my line. There's a lot of overlap in our families, so your DNA test results will be of great interest to me.  Sue in Texas   --- On Mon, 2/4/13, squeezeboxdood@verizon.net <squeezeboxdood@verizon.net> wrote: From: squeezeboxdood@verizon.net <squeezeboxdood@verizon.net> Subject: Re: [HANCOCK] Ancestors in the DNA Project To: hancock@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, February 4, 2013, 8:12 PM    Sue/Julia    I imagine I need to do a DNA test in order to be posted on the DNA Project.    I want to be in contact with a living breathing family member from that    line.  The number I have for Bill Felkner is no longer in service.  I tried    calling him this weekend.  I do appreciate all your help in advance.    Was there a William Hancock that came through Jamestown in 1619 and was    killed in the indian uprising at the Berkley Plantation in 1622?  There are    lots of Hancocks here in the area where I live in Newport News VA., only    about 30 miles from Jamestown.   There were lots of Hancocks who were born    and lived and died right here in this area who were related to his line if    he did, in fact, exist.

There is a memorial to a Willia Hancock in Jamestow, Surry, VA that we saw and took a picture of many year ago. I believe he was a captain. That was on our search for the Holts and our Holts married Hancocks..

Helene, And...isn't the HOLT-HANCOCK line in the Chart 3 DNA Group, although we don't yet know the ancestral connections?

Henry, I would encourage you to select the 37 marker Test. 37 markers are sufficient to confirm a connection within the past 4 generations. 25 markers are only sufficient to confirm a connection within the past 10 generations.
