although I have no known parents I have William B. Howard who married Ann CLARKE, as a brother of an Edward Howard born abt 1768, who had a daughter Susanna Howard who married Charles BOONE son of Walter BOONE and Mildred Edelen,  William B. HOWARD had a daughter Elizabeth "Betsy" HOWARD who married John BOONE also a son of Walter BOONE and Mildred Edelen.  I also have placed others as siblings of these two Howard men.  I have an Aloysius HOWARD, and a Basil Pottinger HOWARD, with no known data on each, other than they are mentioned in Ann Hamilton's book on Howard Family of Ohio and Daviess Counties KY. I have also placed Reason Howard who married Betsy Brashears in this group. I can give you more info on Reason Howard but he was born abt 1763 abt same time as william B. HOWARD, they could be brothers or twins or 1st cousins. Now as for James Howard who died abt 1802 I'm convinced he was a brother to John Baptist Howard, but I don't know who their parents were perhaps they may also have had a brother Charles Howard. Does anyone know parents of the Samuel HOWARD who married a Mary "Polly" JOHNSON daughter of Clement JOHNSON and Elizabeth LANGLEY? knowing this Samuel Howard's parents might also lead us to a major discovery. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2011 6:20:58 AM Subject: [MDSTMARY] KY Howard DNA doesn't match This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

The yDNA of a descendant of William Howard who married Ann Clarke (abt. 1771 MD - Nov 1859 Nelson, KY) and the descendants of James Howard (abt 1758 SMC, MD - 1802 Washington, KY) does not match. Although they are both haplogroup E1b1b the markers differ greatly. Only 11 of 26 markers tested so far matched. For those of you with an interest, the results of Howard DNA tests done by FamilyTreeDNA can be seen at: http://www.familytreedna.com/public/howarddnaproject/default.aspx?section=yresults William Howard's descendant is test # 207496 James Howard's descendant is test # 81896 My brother's isn't on there because he tested with Ancestry. You'll notice on the results that another test did match the descendant of William Howard of Nelson County. This person's earliest known ancestor was William A Howard, born 3 March 1847 in Owen County, Kentucky. Anyone with any answers, or new theories?
