Hi James List: After long last we have received the full 25 markers for James Francis James! We thought for sure this Abner James from Lancaster Co, PA would match some of the others Chester Co or Bucks Co James, but no, he is a totally unique branch of the James family. I know we are all beginning to realize just how many men took the name James for a surname. We were just talking about the Welch naming patterns on the Chester Co, PA List, using the Patronyms where you would have James ap James, which means James the son of James. So there would have been many men who would have decided on James for their surname, but they would not be related to very many other men who also took the same name. We will look forward to finding some matches for James in the future. We hope that many more men will sign on for the James DNA test. We now have 60 members in our group.
