Hi all I am happy to have found this list and hope that someone here will be able to help me or to point me in the direction that will help me to solve this brick wall. My 3rd great grandmother is Maria MILLS b.14 JUN 1820 Suffolk County, New York m. Charles B. STEVENS 20 Dec 1837 Brooklyn, Kings, New York d. 23 SEP 1865 Brooklyn, Kings, New York Maria's father is Captain Charles MILLS, probably born Suffolk County, N.Y as found here: Charles B STEVENS & Maria MILLS Marriage Announcement-Long Island Farmer 2 Dec 1837 Jamaica, Queens, New York Mr Charles B. Stevens, of Newtown, to Miss Maria Mills, daughter of Capt. Charles Mills of New York. *Charles B. Stevens and Maria Mills Marriage Announcement Long Island farmer, and Queens County advertiser., December 02, 1837, Page 2, Image 2 About Long Island farmer, and Queens County advertiser. (Jamaica [N.Y.]) 1826-1862 http://nyshistoricnewspapers.org/lccn/sn83031394/1837-12-02/ed-1/seq-2/ <http://nyshistoricnewspapers.org/lccn/sn83031394/1837-12-02/ed-1/seq-2/> Image provided by: Queens Library* Also here in another newspaper announcment that unfortunately I did not save the source but it is one of the New York City newspapers. Marriage announcement. *Married On Wednesday evening, by the Rev. Henry Chase, Mr. CHARLES B. STEVENS, of Newtown, L.I, to Miss MARIA MILLS, daughter of Capt. Charles Mills of this city.* I am trying to figure out which Charles MILLS is actually Maria's father and hopefully find out who her mother is. I suspect he is Charles MILLS b. Sept 1788, Suffolk County, N.Y son of Jonathon MILLS Jr. b. 1 NOV 1760 m. 22 Nov 1785 to Rachel HAWKINS b. 14 MAY 1767 Old Field, Suffolk County, New York. I have no proof that Charles MILLS is the son of Jonathon Jr. and Rachel. But from the extensive research I have done he is the only Charles MILLS born in the area during a time frame that would be of an age that could be Maria's father. That I have found so far, at least. This line of MILLS family comes down the direct line from the original George MILLS who settled in Suffolk County, N.Y. I have most records for Maria and Charles STEVENS and their children, (except for Charles B. STEVENS parents-another brick wall) I have an extensive public tree on Ancestry with this family and many of the other branches. https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/49984519/person/20272262417/facts One of Charles and Maria's grandchildren - Sarah Florence Stevens married Charles Hendrickson MILLS, son of Charles H. MILLS b. 7 OCT 1848, New York and Ellen (Nellie) Jane Boyd b. 30 MAR 1853, Brooklyn, New York Some of the children of Charles B STEVENS and Maria married into these families- BAYLIS ,CORNISH, STROUSE, WOODCOCK, and STOOTHOFF some of which are from the Brooklyn, L.I areas and Suffolk County. I have done the AncestryDNA test and have my data uploaded to Gedmatch - my kit #A967228 and one of my brothers kit # A929827 and my daughters kit # A024493 I have a half uncle who comes down through the STEVENS line that has also done the AncestryDNA test but he is not on Gedmatch. I have also uploaded to FamilyTreeDNA and MyHeritage Any help or suggestions on where else I may search is much appreciated as I have been beating on this brick wall almost daily for over a year. I am trying to join the DAR and have to connect Maria to her father so I can research backwards. Thank you Arlene Braun Mobley Fort Myers, FL

To MILLS members who have not yet done any DNA testing. NO, you do not have to do so. But may help you for your paper trail any way. My MILLS fellow did DNA testing back in late 2004 on the FTDNA site. His kit number on GEDMATCH is #T195349 as my name on the site, Patricia FISCHER. FTDNA and GEDMATCH had to change the kit numbers over a lawsuit back a couple of years. On the FTDNA site, on the MILLS public chart on either the CLASSIC or COLORIZED charts. https://www.familytreedna.com/public/mills?iframe=ycolorized his kit number is #33009 as George MILLS D: 1674 Jamaica, LI NY USA. You will note on that site he matches to 6 others. pretty close. One up and one down on adjacent markers. Some have good paper trails they have shared and some end with recent dates of about ca 1733 or ca 1800. Part and parcel of some of these lines have also been shared over time by the various researchers/family members on www.rootsweb.ancestry.com web site. No known parent or siblings have been identified for 3 of them. Still researching by those descendant/family members. By looking up those ancestor names have tried to put them together in their MILLS group. Our group is haplo group I (eye) 2 a, and str as P 37.2. Can reference the book by Helen S ULLMANN she did in about 2000-01 for the NEGHS client. Family of Herbert LEE MILLS and Bessie DELANO KENDALL, A MILLS Related Family. These are the Long Island MILLS bunch of Jamaica, and Hempstead related. Hope this may help you some. Patricia cw my file as chekwriter on www.rootsweb.ancestry.com and as MILLS family on www.Ancestry.com. My grandparents are George WASHINGTON MILLS B: 1857 Montgomery Co Ohio USA and Grace E GREEN B: 1884, Beebe AR USA. Can back track to New Jersey, to Joseph and Sarah of Westfield, Essex Co NJ USA, D: 1779 and 1782 respectively. Son of Samuel MILLS and Sarah DENTON son of Samuel MILLS and Susannah PALMER, dau of William PALMER and Judith FEAKE son of George MILLS and ? some say his wife Rebecca TANNER may not have been mother to all of his children. She is listed as dau of Nicholas TANNER and John TANNER of London England per Nicholas's will of on the Internet.

See below explanation and asking for a bit of pity party for now. Very sorry but WE ALL GET OLD and things STOP working as well as other parts of human anatomy. The mind is willing but the body sadly as in all things, withers and bits and pieces DOES DIE and have to be removed by a surgery.

Pat, IF your concerned with MILLS DNA testing results, why don't you start a MILLS-DNA list right here on Rootsweb? There can't me any problem with who the admin is with that. There currently is none because nobody has started one as far as I can see.

Pat, I'm feeling a bit ignorant here. You have a man without a MILLS name referenced in your DNA data that you posted. How does that work?

Since Ronkonkoma is on Long Island, your Richard is very likely a descendant of George Mills of Jamaica, NY He's not in my book on descendants of John Mills of Fairfield County and the descendants of Richard of Fairfield County and Long Island probably all went to southern New Jersey. Helen Ullmann

Hi Barb, Not that this will make your search any easier but it has to be noted that some of the MILLS found on Long Island have roots in Connecticut. It is possible that your going to find Richard's DNA comes from a father (family) who lived in Fairfield County of CT. Example is John MILLS, brother of Ebenezer MILLS who were orphaned in Fairfield. Ebenezer remained in CT while John made his way over to Long Island. He died around 1820 there. Wish you luck. PS Didn't see any Phebe connections.

My gedmatch number is A052482 My earliest mills identified ancestor is Richard D Mills 1805-1884, died in Ronkonkoma New York, married to Charlotte E Newton. Richard is related is some way to the Mills families of New York (Long Island) but I haven't been able to find a dna connection - wondering if he was adopted - don't know the name of his father who died when Richard was young, but his mother's name was Phebe.

Take your time to re group and get life back on track. We are here for you. Good to know our MILLS list has not bit the dust with loss of ROOTSWEB being offline for so long. . The MILLS admin position needs to be refilled possibly two needed to help Ted MILLS till a permanent replacement can take it on full time on the FTDNA surname project.Keeping good thoughts in the days ahead for you.

Because interested 3rd parties can do analysis with kits existing there, other people can make breakthroughs FOR YOU. But it requires the data exist at GEDmatch.By chromosome mapping and triangulation, various Mills families can be distinguished, even without Y-chromosome testing. I have an MS-ExCel VLOOKUP table that will parse GEDmatch data to identify possible triangulated groups. I have used it for other families with lots of success. I need about 50+ GEDmatchIDs that claim Mills descent to make it useful.Please upload your raw data to GEDmatch, and post the GEDmatchID here, as Janine has done (see below).Once you have a (free) GEDmatch account, you can do a use lookup by email or kit number. Use this email for me to find those kits that I admin.Best,GreggA Quaker Mills descendant From: jeanine via MILLS <mills@rootsweb.com> To: mills@rootsweb.com Cc: jeanine <joyzee_goil@yahoo.com> Sent: Monday, July 23, 2018 10:43 AM Subject: [MILLS] Gedmatch, FTDNA & Ancestry ooops...forgot to say that I have done autosomal at FTDNA & also Ancestry .

A large number of our members have chosen not to provide their names.  That is a privacy choice anyone can make.  Common sense tells me who some of the email addresses belong to as their name is within the email address.  However, if these folks have stopped using an   old ema il address for one reason or another... we will not be able to find them.  I'll try to keep you informed as we lose members  perhaps some of you even know of email address changes.  As new arrivals come along, I encourage them to write an introductory letter that lets the group know their connection to the MILLS name and if there is an ancestor we can help them with.

Well Joseph sounds like we could be kin. Yes he was married to Sarah Goodwin, I think 1800. Born in Portsmouth, NH. But the dates of J and S don’t match. They had nine kids and one was a Joseph. Some of your said facts do not line up at all. Luke is in that line too. Does that resonate? Many of these lightly linked families have Joseph’s, John’s and Williams. Ad nauseum. Look at Dave Rudge’s genealogical list. He has a lot on Mills, some of which is incorrect. (Preserved’s down the line family) All interesting. I need help on Wood Strain Clark. (SC) Whew!
