    1. [KINCAID] Chart Summary
    2. Sue Liedtke
    3. The following is a summary of Groups and sets in the DNA chart. A-1 information was posted earlier but is included her for continuity. Group A has the largest number of participants. This may be due to the higher interest of descendents of colonial ancestors in genealogy though there are participants whose ancestors did not migrate to N America. Set 1 has a 10 at marker 15. I have chosen values from this set to represent the Apparent Ancestral Values for the entire group. Others have suggested that the AAV for marker 15 should be 9. Additional participants and documents may show us better which is correct. A-1a-- about 1/2 of the ancestors in this set can be traced to Augusta/Greenbrier Co. VA. This area is very complicated and the number of participants reflects an attempt to use every tool possible to sort the families. The rest of the set is scattered with the earliest ancestors being Rev. Joseph b c1724 Co. Down, Ireland and William/Sarah b c 1700 of New Castle, DE. Other participants have traced to Westmoreland Co. PA, NJ, Monongalia Co VA, Cecil Co. MD, Tippecanoe and Crawford Co. IN A-1b-- subgrouped by appearance of a 12 at marker 26. The earliest ancestor is Joseph m c 1726 of Albemarle Co. VA, probable connections to John of Sadsbury PA through sons Samuel b 1736 and David, and possible connection to John the Patriarch b 1710 of Burke Co. NC. There is also probable connection to David/Winnefred of Alb. Co. VA. Others trace to Lewis Co. TN, Morgan Co. OH and various KY counties. A-1c-- subgrouped by appearance of an 11 at marker 4. This set may or may not be related more closely to each other than to someone in A-1a. The marker 4 eleven is an unreliable indicator. In this set are 3 who trace to Robert/Mary Bowman b 1742 of Hardin Co. KY, 2 who trace to Thomas and John of Campbell Co. TN (originally from Greenbrier Co. VA), two more who trace to Greenbrier Co. VA, one who traces to Ontario, Canada, one to Gilmer Co. GA, and the earliest of the set to James/Helen Scott of Falkirk Parish Scotland (d 1669). Group A-2. Set 2 and 4 is distinguished from set 1 by a 9 at marker 15. A-2a. Earliest ancestor is George/Jean Mitchell b 1733 of Cumberland Co. PA. One ancestor Samuel/Johanna Walch b 1811 did not leave Ireland. Other members from Fayette Co. WVA and Westmoreland Co. PA A-2b This set has an 18 a marker 30. Earliest ancestors are James/Hannah b 1739 of Rowan Co. NC , Andrew/Martha Townsley b 1745 of Cumberland Co. PA and John/Anna Gregory b 1749 of PA (perhaps son of John of Carlisle). Later ancestors show up in Maury and Wilson Cos. TN. A-4 This set has a 14 at marker 19 and a 36 at marker 34. Four participants descend from David/Elizabeth Gardiner b 1798 who migrated from Londonderry, Ireland to New Brunswick, Canada. Three of these were recruited to successfully isolate mutations. The others are associated with Co. Tyrone, Ireland. Two of these descend from a suspected brother of David. A-undetermined. One participant has not upgraded to 37 markers. He is set 2 but the subset cannot be determined. Another particpant has results for markers 1-12 so his set cannot be determined. Group B The earliest participant is vetted to John/Margaret Blair b 1748 of Campsie Parish Scotland. The other 3 trace to Tyrone and Donegal Cos Ireland. Group C-1 All but one participant trace to Donegal Co., Ireland. Three of these trace to John/Catherin Coulter b 1759. One participant traces to Indiana. Group C-2. This Group may not be genetically linked to C-1, however, the C designation has been retained for both groups because of early use within the project. The earliest ancestors for this group trace to George/Elizabeth Dean b c1720 of Augusta Co. VA, Samuel/Margaret Clark b c1717 of Augusta Co. Va and Robert/Margaret Doherty of m pr1745 of Alleghany Co. PA. Others trace to Washington Co. PA, Harrison Co., KY, Jackson Co, OH, Washington Co., OH and Muscatine Co. IA. Group D. Two participants trace to John/Elizabeth b c1730 of Bath Co. VA (John of Bath) and two participants trace to William/Sarah Smith b 1806 of Gasconade Co. MO Group E. Two participants. Each trace to Alexander Kinket b 1710 of Dordreicht Netherlands Group F. Two participants. Only one with listed ancestor. He traces to James/Janet Manuel b 1739 of Stirlingshire, Scotland Group G. Two participants who are not closely matched but share enough likenesses that they appear to be from the same stalk. One traces to James/Jane Watson b 1800 of Tyrone Co. Ireland and the other to Robert/Isabella Nutt b 1855 Londonderry Ireland Group H. Two participants in Haplogroup E3b. One has not upgraded from 12 markers and has no ancestor named. The other traces to David/Ann Tozieer Jenkins of New Hampshire. Ungrouped. These participants have no match within the project. This may be due to an unknown break in the Kincaid male lineage or that other participants have not surfaced from this particular line. Among this group are participants tracing to Charles/Apphia b 1804 of Cumberland Co. Maine, George/Margaret b 1825 of New York, New York, Thomas b 1745 of Indiana, Thomas/Mary Echkels b 1802 of Coschocton, OH, and James Torrance/Mary Moor b 1800 of Alleghany Co. PA. Sue Liedtke
